The Village Museum: 

Stellenbosch's museum highlight is the extremely enjoyable Village Museum, which cuts a cross section through the town's architectural and social heritage by means of four adjacent dwellings from different periods, including the Blettermanhuis, an archetypal eighteenth-century Cape Dutch house.
They're beautifully conserved and furnished in period style, and you'll meet the odd worker dressed in period costume.

Dorp Street:

Dorp Street, Stellenbosch's best-preserved historic axis, is well worth a stroll just to soak in the ambience of buildings, glabes, oaks and roadside water furrows.

Krige's Cottages, an unusual terrace of historic town houses, between Aan-de-Wagenweg and Krige Street, were built as Cape Dutch cottages in the first half of the nineteenth century; Victorian features were added subsequently, resulting in an interesting hybrid, with gables housing Victorian attic windows and decorative Victorian verandas with filigree ironwork fronting the elegantly simple Dutch facades.
