Knysna Fires: Garden of Remembrance
A life-size "guardian angel" stands watch over a Garden of Remembrance at Narnia guesthouse and farm in Knysna – on the exact spot where a young Malawian girl lost her life during the June blaze of 2017. This garden is not only in memory of little Catherine Matope (4), who was found next to a dam on the property on 8 June 2017, but is meant as a tribute to all those who lost their lives during that tumultuous week the fires ravaged many parts of Knysna.
