Geocache Description:

Pro Aris et Focis

 

Looking a bit like a regimental arms - sounding a bit like a home makers forum - Maritzburg College remains one of the country's leading government schools with a history of over 150 years.


Maritzburg College (or College) has a lot of interesting history on it's grounds - and you can often enter and walk around and see some of the national monuments - including the Victoria Hall which was used as a hospital during the Anglo Boer War, and the cirrugated iron sentry box from the Anglo-Boer War. The alma mater of many prominent South African men from all spheres of life.

 

YOU DO N OT NEED TO ENTER THE SCHOOL TO FIND THIS CACHE!!!!
