De Wildt Cheetah and Wild Dog centre outside of Brits, North West © Brits
Brits was officially founded in 1924 by Johannes Nicolaas Brits, a farmer who owned a large portion of the land in the area. He played a key role in the development of the town, and it was named in his honor. The establishment of an irrigation system using water from the Crocodile River was a significant development for the town. This system allowed for large-scale farming and transformed Brits into a fertile agricultural region, known for producing a variety of crops, including citrus fruits, vegetables, and tobacco. Brits is also known for its tourism attractions, including game reserves, nature parks, and historical sites. The Hartbeespoort Dam, located nearby, is a popular recreational area for both locals and tourists.
