Attractions in Tsumeb

Tsumeb is a quaint town with about 15,000 inhabitants, with a lot to offer. The Tsumeb Museum for example is a must-visit for tourists who are interested in Namibian history or mining activities.

A vist to the Tsumeb Art & Crafts Centre is also worth it, as a variety of African artefacts are sold there and you can watch the artists while they are working.

Attractions around Tsumeb

A visit to the Bushmen cultural village in Tsintsabis, where the Hai||kom demonstrate their fascinating, traditional skills, promises to be very interesting.

You can also visit the Otjikoto Lake. The lake, which was formed when several caves collapsed, was used by the Germans in German South West Africa to drop their weapons into after their defeat during the First World War. Today the lake is a nice stop-over for visitors on the way to the Etosha National Park.

Another attraction in the vicinity is the Hoba Meteorite, the biggest meteorite ever found on earth. This nearly 60 ton meteorite can be visited on the farm Hoba, in the Otavi Mountains.

A visit to one of the biggest Baobab tree north of Tsumeb is also worthwhile. This sacred tree of the Hai|kom Bushmen poses a beautiful motive for photographs.

Further attractions are Lake Guinas, Dragon’s Breath and Ghaub caves.
