Swakopmund

What To See and Do

Swakopmund is a beach resort and an excellently preserved example of German colonial architecture. It is one of the few places anywhere outside of Europe where a sizable minority of the population speaks German and has German roots. The best of these buildings are the Altes Gefangnis Prison, designed by Heinrich Bause in 1909 and The Wormannhaus, built in 1906 with a prominent tower (now a public library).

Attractions in Swakopmund include a transport museum, national marine aquarium, a crystal gallery and spectacular sand dunes, near Langstrand, south of the Swakop River. Outside of the city, the Rossmund Desert Golf Course is one of only 5 all-grass desert golf courses in the world. Nearby lies a camel farm and the Martin Luther steam locomotive, dating from 1896 and abandoned in the desert.
