WELCOME

The Heritage Foundation was established in 2002 as a non-profit company and is a respected player in the South African cultural heritage sector. The Heritage Foundation is the focal point of the Afrikaner’s legacy for the next generation.

With the Heritage Foundation archive, Afrikaner research library and museum services, we preserve and conserve primary and secondary research sources, audio-visual material and historical objects of cultural-historical importance to the Afrikaner. The educational role of the Heritage Foundation is fulfilled through exhibitions that are renewed regularly to put a variety of topics in the limelight.

Researchers also use these historical records to publish research studies. Furthermore, the Heritage Foundation is also actively involved in the protection and preservation of various Afrikaner heritage sites across Southern Africa. This specialised knowledge is shared with interested parties through our online heritage courses. This is how we ensure that the core of Afrikaner culture and history is preserved for the next generation.
