History: In this Georgian house, then the residence of Gideon J. Malherbe, the "Genootskap van Regte Afrikaners" was founded on 14 August 1875. The object of this Society was ". . . to stand for our language, our nation and our country". The well-known printing press of the "Genootskap", on which, inter alia, Die Patriot was printed, was also housed at Westfalen for some time.
Visual Description: This double-storeyed 5-bay house - a good example of the restrained, Georgian-based architecture of the early-Victorian period with the noble proportions of its tall sash windows.
