About Beck House Museum
In Worcester stands the old typical Cape Dutch Style house, built in 1841, which is now a monument and the Beck House museum. Originally the House of important Worcester citizen, Cornelius Beck, this museum depicts his life and town life in Worcester in those times.
Stroll through and discover old furnishings such as antique stinkwood and yellowwood furniture. This monument is also home to the oldest herb garden in South Africa as well as the original bath house.
Also known as the Stofberg House, this building contains the original doctor and dentist consulting rooms. Make sure to visit the Cape cart in the Old Coach House and stop by the gift and coffee shop on your way out.
