The Kruger house belonged to the ex president of the South African republican and a boer leader, Paul Kruger. One unique thing about the construction of the house is that, instead of water, milk was used to mix the cement of the house as the water that was available was of poor quality. It is also considered to be one of the first houses in Pretoria to have electricity in it. The house has things of the president Paul Kruger; some include the gifts given to him. The place is like a window in understanding the rich history of South Africa.<\/p>\n
