Moffat’s Mission
Many eminent people, such as David Livingstone setting off on his historic journeys of exploration, used Moffat’s mission station as a base and there are, in fact, the remains of the famous wild almond tree under which Livingstone supposedly proposed to Mary Moffat. Moffat’s house has been carefully restored, as have many of the other buildings. Built in 1831, the original church – with its mud floors, great wooden beams and thatched roof – is still in use. The manual printing press that printed the first Tswana bible is also still clanking away.
