Paarl, the Taal Monument

The only other sight of any interest in Paarl itself is the grandiose Taal Monument, the apartheid-era memorial to the Afrikaans language, standing just outside the centre on the top of Paarl Mountain.

The monument used to be as important a place of pilgrimage for Afrikaners as the Voortrekker Monument in Pretoria.

From the coffee and curio shop you can admire a truly magnificent panorama across to the Cape Peninsula and False Bay in one direction and the Winelands ranges in the other.
