Property for sale (real estate) in Krugersdorp Some useful information regarding Krugersdorp located in Gauteng
Krugersdorp, Gauteng,
South Africa
With
a population of more than 350 000, Krugersdorp is the industrial
hub of Western Gauteng and was founded in 1887 by MW Pretorius
when gold was discovered on his farm, Paardekraal. The mining industry
has formed an integral part in the development of the town, which
has a rich cultural and historical background.
Krugersdorp was named after President Paul Kruger
of Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek. It played an important part in South
African history and came into being because of two important events
in the history of South Africa: the Transvaal War of Independence
(1881) and the discovery of the Witwatersrand Goldfields (1886). These
events had far-reaching political and economic consequences in South
Africa's development.
By the time the town was founded, the existence of the gold reef
along the Witwatersrand was ell established and thousands seeking
their fortunes pitched their tents and pegged their claims. In 1888,
Krugersdorp was proclaimed a separate gold field.
Krugersdorp offers visitors all the benefits of a city, with
a modern business centre and shopping malls alongside many smaller
shops, schools, all the necessary amenities, as well as game reserves
and a nearby bird sanctuary.
Krugersdorp has the Jack Taylor Airfield and is easily accessible
from Pretoria, the R28/N14 highway, Johannesburg, Johannesburg
International Airport, the N1 highway, and Lanseria Airport
on the R511.
The
nearby 1 400 hectare game reserve in dense bushveld with plenty of
game is one of the town's major tourist attractions. Also in close
proximity are various national monuments and the Cradle of Humankind
with the Sterkfontein Caves and the Wonder Cave.
Krugersdorp offers ultra-modern sport facilities including
an ice rink of international standard, gyms and sport stadium.

Krugersdorp is a mining city in the West Rand of Gauteng, South Africa.
Ifs population is cca 290,000 (2001). Krugersdorp was founded in 1887
by Marthinus Pretorius and named after Paul Kruger.
Apart from gold, manganese, iron, asbestos and lime are also mined
in the area. Krugersdorp is the site of the December 1880 gathering
at which more than 6,000 men vowed to fight for the Transvaal's independence.
When gold was discovered on the Witwatersrand, a need arose for a
major town in the west of the reef.The government bought part of the
farm Paardekraal and named the new town after the Transvaal President
Paul Kruger. The British built a concentration camp here during the
Second Boer War to house Boer women and children.
In 1952 the West Rand Consolidated Mine was the first in the world
to extract Uranium as a byproduct of the gold refining process.
Krugersdorp no longer has a separate municipal government, and the
municipality has become part of the Mogale City municipality, along
with surrounding towns.
