Auberge de Courtrai is proud to form part of the historic town of Paarl. In 1657, only five years after Jan van Riebeeck established a settlement in the Cape, an expedition under the leadership of a certain Abraham Gabbema, went to investigate the economic possibilities of the wild inland and to look for the legendary treasures of Monomotapa.
With the chance of finding the treasures, one can imagine, that jewels must have been in his thoughts for most of the time. No wonder then that he named the area after the huge granite rocks, (which, as a result of rain during the night, glistened like pearls in the early morning sunlight) Peerlbergh (Pearl Mountain).
And to this day, when there is moist in the air, residents and visitors alike, are intrigued by the rocks pearly glow.
The town Paarl, is a blend of tradition and innovation and offers the following attractions:
* A choice of 20 cellars on the wine route
* Fine examples of early South African architecture
