NIROX Sculpture Park - Kromdraai, Krugersdorp

Set amid the rolling grasslands of the Cradle of Humankind near Kromdraai and Krugersdorp, the NIROX Sculpture Park is a mesmerising fusion of art and nature that’s become a must-visit for culture vultures and outdoor lovers alike. Founded in 2006 by the NIROX Foundation to nurture contemporary art practice, the park occupies roughly 30 hectares of landscaped lawns, water features and indigenous veld alongside the Blaauwbankspruit River. It lies within a broader private nature reserve, creating an almost Edenic setting where artistic expression and the South African landscape intertwine beautifully.

The park’s origins stem from a bold vision to bring global contemporary art into dialogue with the local environment. Through its extensive artist residency programme, creatives from South Africa and around the world are invited to live and work on-site, drawing inspiration from the land and its remarkable cultural and palaeontological heritage. In return, participating artists contribute sculptures and installations to the park’s permanent and long-term collection, ensuring that each visit feels fresh, unexpected and deeply engaging.

Wandering through NIROX feels a little like strolling through an open-air museum set within a wild garden. Featuring over 60 permanent and long-term installations. From abstract forms and monumental pieces to contemplative figural sculptures, punctuate the verdant lawns, waterways and pathways. Artists represented span the globe, offering a rich cross-section of creative voices and materials. Seasonal and curated exhibitions further expand the experience, inviting visitors to encounter art in constantly evolving ways.

Beyond the visual feast of sculpture, the park also plays host to a lively programme of cultural events, including outdoor concerts and special art weekends that draw enthusiastic crowds from Johannesburg and beyond. For a more relaxed experience, the on-site restaurant And then there was Fire… provides a stylish backdrop for lunch amid your explorations (advance booking is recommended). Whether you’re an art aficionado or simply seeking a serene escape into creativity and nature, NIROX offers an unforgettable experience on the edge of one of South Africa’s most storied landscapes.
