History
Higher education started at Stellenbosch in 1859, but Stellenbosch University came into being through a process of evolution. The following years represent some of the milestones in its history:
1859: Founding of the Theological Seminary of the Dutch Reformed Church;
1866: Founding of the Stellenbosch Gymnasium, inspired by the Theological Seminary;
1881: The Arts Department of the Stellenbosch Gymnasium developed into the Stellenbosch College, renamed the Victoria College of Stellenbosch in 1887;
1918: Stellenbosch University was officially established when the Victoria College gave way to an independent university – made possible through the generosity of local benefactor Jan Marais, whose statue is a well-known landmark on the ‘Red Square’ in the centre of the Stellenbosch campus.
