Founded in 1910 and named after the last president of the Orange Free State Republic, M.T. Steyn. An old-fashioned, rural aggregation of cattle farms forms this settlement. The Sandstone Church, in the centre of town, is a fine piece of turn-of-the-century sandstone architecture. Steynsrus, today, is known for Salem Ceramics which has been manufacturing ceramics for the past twenty years. This leading manufacturer is well-know throughout the country for its innovative, artistic and impressive garden ceramics. Visit the factory in town for a wide range of household and ornamental ceramics. |
