About Banneling | Exile Memorial
Die Banneling (The Exiled) is a bronze monument located on the grounds of the National Women's Monument and War Museum in Bloemfontein. Unveiled on 10 October 1983, it serves as a memorial to the Boer prisoners of war who died in overseas camps during the Anglo-Boer War (1899–1902). Purpose: Dedicated to the thousands of Boer men and boys sent to exile camps in locations like St. Helena, Ceylon (Sri Lanka), and Bermuda. Design: Sculpted by Danie de Jager, the monument depicts a multi-generational group: an old warrior too elderly to fight and a young boy.
