Personal highlights

  1. Museum: from indigenous bushmen to colonial powers and independence
  2. Exhibition: equally impressive collection like Das Alte Fort in Grootfontein
  3. German West Africainfo-icon: German colony only for a brief period of time (1884-1919)
  4. Namibiainfo-icon: home of many German immigrants, you still hear German in the streets
