In 1808 the governor of the Cape, Lord Caledon, welcomed the establishment of a mission by Kohrhammer and Schmidt, two Moravian missionaries from Germany.
In 1967 the double-ended church and parsonage in Main Road, Mamre, were declared national monuments. The original water mill has been lovingly restored and is today used as a museum.
However the place is in desperate need of renovation, and hopefully funds will soon be available to restore Mamre to its former glory.
