What a lovely little museum - well worth dedicating a couple of hours to looking at all the exhibits. So much to learn about Kynsna's history.

Really enjoyed this little outing. It’s not just about the Old Gaol, but also has a maritime section, angling section and a lot about the history of Knysna which I found fascinating. No guided tours (I prefer to take my time anyway so suited me fine) & lots of info on the walls as well as QR codes for further reading. AND… it was FREE!

We were in and out pretty fast because we came just before closing time, but we saw a few interesting things. You learn a lot about how Knysna was founded and about the lake and the ships that first entered the lake. Knysna has a rich history and it's always fun learning more about it. Would like to visit again some day.
