View Pretoria PackagesUnion Buildings, Pretoria Overview
Union Buildings is the seat of the government of South Africa and one of the most iconic heritage sites of the country. The architecture of the building is striking, with the twin towers sitting at the front building representing the English and Afrikaans languages. Unfortunately, only the gardens are accessible to the public. Since the building is located at the highest point of the city, these terraced gardens offer great views of the city.
The Union Buildings opened in 1913, marking the Union of South Africa. Sir Herbert Baker designed this impressive structure, and its 285-metre-long body was built from sandstone in the British imperial style. Some may also remember the buildings from when Nelson Mandela was declared the first democratically elected leader of South Africa in 1994. The gardens are adorned with several statues of important individuals, as well as memorials. The gardens are also often the location for concerts and major events. Spend a while relaxing with the family in the garden, enjoying panoramic views of Pretoria and marvelling at this imposing historic structure.
