History: Home of Adam Tas. Originally granted to Jan Cornelisz, it was purchased by Jurgen Grimpen a German. Grimpen's widow married Adam Tas and hence the Tas connection.(Burman, J; Waters of the Western Cape)
Adam Tas procured the farm in 1702 and lived here until his death in 1722. Especially noteworthy of this Cape Dutch building complex, is the H-shaped main dwelling-house with its frescos by Jan Adam Hoffman in 1779.
