Church Square (Pretoria, South Africa)

The Church Square is the historical centre point of the South African capital Pretoria. It was commissioned by the first president of the South African Republic, Marthinus Wessel Pretorius, in 1855 and used as a market place, for church events and as a sports field. Its main feature and focal point, the bronze statue of State President Paul Kruger, was designed by Anton van Wouw and finished in 1900. The statue has adorned several other locations throughout Pretoria until it finally found a permanent home on Church Square in 1954. It is surrounded by the statues of 4 anonymous Boer soldiers. Around the square several historical and architectural interesting buildings can be found. These include the Old Capital Theatre, the Ou Raadsaal (Old Council Chamber), the turreted Palace of Justice, where Nelson Mandela stood trial, the Tudor Chambers and the Old Post Office. Parades by the National Ceremonial Guard and a military band are held on the square on each Wednesday from 9.30 am to 10.30 am.
