‘Silence Without Borders” “Come Enjoy The Quiet Of The Karoo In Our Tree-Lined Village” Vosburg lies in the Northern Cape on the R384 between Britstown and Carnarvon on the Karoo Highlands route towards the West Coast. Vosburg was named after the Vos family that lived on the farm Processfontein, which was the farm on which the town was established. The village was founded in 1885 by the Vos and Van Rensburg families on the banks of the Processfontein stream. In 1897, the village became a municipality, and the village expanded to include a pastorie and an NG Church with a number of early houses built, which are still in use today and lovingly restored. The village is fed by a fountain and there is still 'water furrows' in parts of the village. Vosburg grew into and is still primarily a farming community mostly with sheep however game hunting is a growing winter attraction. The village has a number of small enterprises such as two coffee houses, a cooperative, a take-away, a hotel and a number of Guest Houses. In the vicinity there are San etchings, a ground dam, pans and stargazing opportunities.
