| Rustenburg (Afrikaans
and Dutch: Town of Rest) is a small city of 125.000 inhabitants situated
in at the foot of the Magaliesberg mountain range in North West Province
of South Africa. The town was established in 1851 as an administrative
centre for a fertile farming area producing citrus fruit, tobacco, groundnuts,
sunflower seeds, maize, wheat and cattle. On 10 February 1859, the Dutch
Reformed Church was founded in Rustenburg. Just north-west of the town,
the Transvaal President Paul Kruger bought a 5 square kilometre farm in
1863.
Among the first residents
of Rustenburg were settlers of Indian origin. |

Map of Rustenburg

| One of the first
families of Indian origin was the Bhyat family, whose contribution to the
City's history was marked by the renaming of a major streetname to "Fatima
Bhayat Street". The spelling of the surname on the street name
is unfortunately incorrect. Fatima Bhyat and husband Abubakr Ahmed Bhyat,
the first residents of Indian origin, owned a hardware store that supplied
equipment on credit to Paul Kruger for use during the Anglo-Boer War and
for which they were later rewarded with in gold. Rustenburg was one
of the host cities of the 2010 Football World Cup with the 40000
seat Royal Bafokeng Stadium. |
