We
will leave early morning and drive to Hartbeespoortdam, surrounded by the
majesty of the Magaliesberg
mountain range. Early work on the dam began around late 1895.
Construction was on and off over the years up until 1923 when a young engineer
took over the building of the wall. The Dam was constructed in 1925. The
Crocodile and
Magalies
Rivers
lead into the Dam and the capacity is 205 million cubic meters and its
shoreline, when full, is about 56km. The Hartbeespoort Dam was built as an
irrigation dam for the surrounding agricultural areas. The Dam Wall is the only
example of a Roman Triumphal Arch Styled Wall in South Africa.
