A good few months back somebody asked the Question if there was ever a church or tree's at Kolmanskuppe, I asked Anita Reschke the question, seeing that she actually lived at Luderitz and went to Kolmanskuppe in the day's when it was not a ghost town..... No Tree's and No church, people from Luderitz would have to travel to Kolmanskuppe to see the Doctor as The hospital there was one of the best in SOuthern Africa in it's time....

Alfred dearsest did you take these photo's?
Beautifull house's, sad to see them with no life.
They must have been built well to stand so long. I'm sure only the germans could have built something of such good quality

I'm sure... there was a wee Scotsman helping the Germans to build those houses.....
