welcome to Kolmanskuppe
The Diamond
Legacy
A diamond – timeless beauty… But what makes this stone so precious that men give their lives for it? That they steal, lie and cheat for it? What makes thousands of fortune seekers live in the desolate Namib in search of its wealth?
Ghost Town Tours
It was in 1908 when the first diamond was found. This caused a diamond rush and sparked life in the little town of Kolmanskop.
Today this once vibrant town lies at the mercy of the Namib Desert, threatening to engulf the grand buildings.
Join us for an hour of magical history in the heart of the forbidden territory.
Please note Kolmanskop is situated in the Tsau//Khaeb national park and we do not know when MET will implement park fees. We would suggest you point that out to your clients, any government fees will be for their own account.
Amateur Photography permits available. (No commercial photography unless pre – arranged with Ghost Town Tours)
Permits can be obtained at the Kolmanskop entrance or at Desert Deli in town.
