It was declared a National Monument under old NMC legislation on 15 December 1978. Newlands in Cape Town is home to the Josephine Mill which was built in 1940. Its machinery ceased operation in 1963 and it was decided to renovate and reconstruct the mill to get it operating again, which was achieved by 1988. Josephine Mill's is a little slice of history in the heart of the green, leafy suburb of Newlands. It is situated on the banks of the Liesbeek River, and is both a museum and the only remaining water mill that can be found in the Mother City of Cape Town. The Josephine Mill is just one of these; one that adds to the variety, heritage and charm of a world-class destination. It was left to the Cape Town Historical Society by its heir in 1975. Built soon after 1819, the iron wheel continues to create stone-ground flours, which are baked on site or sold to the public. Fresh breads are available from the shop, making for delicious snacks and gifts for those who appreciate a top-class homemade loaf. Natural, organic ingredients mean that nutrients are preserved and flavours enhanced. The shop also stocks homemade preserves, as well as baking utensils.
