Nieu-Bethesda
The Owl House, its walls covered with mirrors and ground
glass, was the home of the eccentric mystic Helen
Martins (1898-1976) who was immortalised by Athol Fugard
in his play The Road to Mecca. Her creative talent is
displayed in the Camel Yard where statues of camels,
wise men, churches and mermaids, all created from broken
bottles, fragments of mirror and cement, turn the space
into a fantasy world.
