The Afrikaans Language Museum offers a modern exhibition on the roots, variants and expressions of Afrikaans and also focuses on early written Afrikaans; for example, Arabic Afrikaans, and the contribution of the Association of True Afrikaners. 

The Afrikaans Language Monument is built on the slopes of Paarl Mountain and was unveiled in 1975.

De Poort Heritage Village, an exciting new Paarl tourism venue, can be visited to see heritage aritsans at work; see a forge in operation; try out the skill of the blacksmith; and watch a cooper or farrier.
