Kimberley is well known for its downtown pedestrian Platzl. This year is the 50th anniversary of the Platzl and the Kimberley Heritage Museum is celebrating with an exhibit that will run until the Thanksgiving weekend in October.
The Platzl was developed in 1973 when Kimberley rebranded as the Bavaria of the Rockies, and the pedestrian zone's intersecting cobblestone lanes still twist through the city centre today.
