Owl House

Camdeboo Local Municipality, South Africa

The Owl House is a museum in Nieu-Bethesda, Eastern Cape, South Africa. The owner, Helen Martins, turned her house and the area around it into a visionary environment, elaborately decorated with ground glass and containing more than 300 concrete sculptures including owls, camels, peacocks, pyramids,

and people. She inherited the house from her parents and began its transformation after they died.
