CJV Saal

The CJV Saal (CJV Hall) was built at 39, Church Street, Stellenbosch for the Christelijke Jongelieden Vereniging (Young Christians' Association) in 1900, at the instigation of prof N.J. Hofmeyr, one of the first two professors of the Stellenbosch seminary. The Church Council of the Moeder Kerk later renamed the classicist hall, with its ionic columns and Greek pediment, after Hofmeyr, so it became known as the Hofmeyrsaal ("Hofmeyr Hall") Primarily used as a venue for meetings of the debating societies and mass meetings of the students.
