Talana Museum is situated at the base of Talana Hill, just outside Dundee in the province of KwaZulu Natal. The museum is set in a 20 acre heritage park. The name of the museum comes from the Zulu name 'Talana' meaning 'the shelf where precious items are stored' is a most appropriate name for this large and varied museum. It consists of 17 buildings, dedicated to subjects as diverse as war and agriculture, mining, industry and domestic life. The museum started in 1979 to remember the Anglo Zulu war, the small collection moved to the present site at the beginning of 1983. There is also a shop available at the museum that offers a variety of quality, locally produced products. The Miners' Rest restaurant serves delicious meals, in a pre-1914 corrugated iron, miner's home that was relocated from Ballengeich mine, in our district.
