Notable features in Hofmeyr
Pink Church The local Dutch Reformed Church in Hofmeyr was built a year or two after the town was established and upgraded in 1933. The church was painted in a pastel choral colour to blend in with other buildings. Hofmeyr Skull The Hofmeyr Skull, belonging to a 36,000 year old anatomically modern human, was found in 1952 in the dry wash of the Vlekpoort River just outside Hofmeyr. ==References==
