Information on Ohrigstad, Mpumalanga, South Africa
About Ohrigstad, Mpumalanga, South AfricaOhrigstad is a small town to the north of Lydenburg in the Mpumalanga province, South Africa. A fort was established by a group of Voortrekkers under the leadership of Andries Hendrik Potgieter with the help of a Dutch merchant Gregorius Ohrig. The settlers arrived in 1845 and were soon afterwards decimated by malaria and forced to abandon the area. Settlers only returned once the disease was under control. On the 14 May 1873, the area was proclaimed as a public gold field after the discovery of gold in the Selati River. Click here for Conference Centres in Ohrigstad
