Saving Pretoria's buildings

The Melrose House Museum in Pretoria is undergoing restoration work, mostly to the outside. The curator's house in Burgerspark in Berea also had restoration work done recently. The work was done by the Tshwane Building Heritage Association (formerly Van der Stel Foundation). The chairman, Anton Jansen, oversees the work. Previous work done by the association includes a small chapel in Heroes' Acre in Church Street, which dates back to the 1860s. They also saved the old Hatfield Primary School on the corner of Duncan and Schoeman Streets.
