 | | Pretoria Central, where a number of people convicted of atrocities during the apartheid years are now imprisoned. | | | The longest serving of these was activist Denis Goldberg, who served some 20 years. | | | The bid by Potchefstroom (a conservative medium-sized town about 300 kilometres to the west of Johannesburg) to secure the role as the capital of what used to be called the province of Transvaal failed, and the Volksraad (parliament) was established in Pretoria. |

| | Pretoria was one of the battle scenes of the bitter Boer Civil War from 1863 to 1869 and in 1880 to 1881 during the Anglo-Transvaal War. | | | Today his house is a museum and a national monument. | | | Pretoria is no longer the quiet, sleepy "dorpie" (little town) of the early years, yet because of the beauty of it's surroundings, one feels at peace in the city, even during rush hour. |
