The NG Kerk Wynberg (Dutch Reformed Church) is a historic church building located in Wynberg, a suburb of Cape Town in the Western Cape. The current church building was completed in 1831, replacing an earlier structure that had served the congregation since the late 18th century. The church is a notable example of Cape Dutch and Neo-Classical architectural styles, featuring a prominent gable and a bell tower. It is situated in the historic Wynberg Village, which was established in the 17th century as a farming community and later became a key military and commercial center during the British colonial period. The church has been a central landmark in Wynberg for nearly two centuries, reflecting the religious and social history of the Dutch Reformed community in the Cape.
