About Somerset West, Western Cape Province, South Africa.

  • Somerset West (Afrikaans: Somerset-Wes) is a town in the Western Cape, South Africa.
  • Organisationally and administratively it is included in the City of Cape Town metropolitan municipality as a suburb in the Helderberg area (formerly called Hottentots Holland), about 50 kilometres east of Cape Town central city area, and bordering on Strand.
  • The town is overlooked by the Helderberg Mountain (meaning “clear mountain”), a part of the Hottentots-Holland range of mountains.
  • Somerset West was founded in 1822 on part of the historic farm, Vergelegen. The town was named Somerset after an English governor of the Cape Colony during the 1800s, Lord Charles Henry Somerset, with the suffix ‘West’ being added after 1825 to differentiate it from Somerset East, another South African town in the Eastern Cape.
  • Somerset West was a municipality in its own right from 1904 to 1996. The council approved its first coat of arms on 23 April 1935. Wikipedia
