When you see a pre-loved airplane alongside the N1, then you drove past the Wijnland Auto Museum which keeps the biggest selection of vintage cars in the country. Turn around and visit this historic place in Joostenberg Vlakte.

Entrance fee is R100 for adults and children under the age of 12 pay R50. You can adore an amazing collection of vintage cars, helicopters, and an actual airplane and a selection of old and futuristic cars from many centuries ago.

The museum is home to a collection of many many cars, ranging from classic American Buicks and Cadillacs to modern supercars like Ferraris and Lamborghinis. There are also quite a few rusty cars spread all over the area which adds to the vintage feeling and rustic charm.

The highlight for the kids: you can climb an actual Convair Aeroplane and take a seat in the cockpit.

Our Experience

If you have a passion for vintage cars and are interested at models from various centuries, then this is your place to be! It’s a fascinating museum with over 400 cars to look at and the kids can explore most of the models inside out. They can open doors, look through the windows, climb in a helicopter and even climb onboard an actual Convair Plane. So this is a hit for the youngsters who love real cars and like to see some ancient models from centuries ago. It’s a lovely place to visit but might become slightly boring after you’ve walked around the area and have seen them all. So be prepared that your visit might not be as time filling as anticipated, but we still enjoyed the experience.
