JAN SMUTS HOUSE MUSEUM

War General Boer, political leader of the South African Union and twice Prime Minister and friend of Churchill, was reunited with his family here. The Big House is a house of wood and corrugated iron. In his office, we discover a Jan Smuts farmer, lawyer, botanist. At the entrance, flattering pamphlets about his participation in the drafting of the preamble to the United Nations Charter, for world peace and the union of the Commonwealth. On the other hand, he refused to sign the Atlantic Charter in 1941, which proclaimed the right of peoples to self-determination.
