Congregational Mission Church in Pacaltsdorp, George completed in 1825.

The building of the church was commenced in 1822 and built by local workers, who may have been inspired by the missionary Carl August Pacalt, particularly as the strong, rough stone tower is reminiscent of English country churches. The windows are particularly fine examples of Gothic Revival wooden interlacings forming a series of overlapping Gothic arches. One of the finest surviving early Gothic Revival buildings in South Africa. A true historical gem of George.
