A South African walked past my computer and said "Nice photo, when did you go to [REMOVED]?"

However, I won't post the answer as I didn't know it...

It is an rather weird monument. I have a whole load of photos I took in the late 70's on a visit there, but they are slides and I cannot scan them. The last time I went it was looking rather forlorn.

I remember it being built. It took what seemed to be ages and was visible from the main road - I had to do errands in the City and passed by it on almost a weekly basis at that time (mid 70's IIRC)

Afrikaans Language Monument , outside Paarl?

Indeed.

A monument to a language. I'll find a link/some more photos. If I'd posted the phallic bit it would have been easier

I have never been there, although I once drove past it on the way to a work meeting.
