 Situated
in the fertile Robertson Valley, farming and wagon building were the town's
original industries. However, after the Second Anglo-Boer War of 1899,
the wagon building industry collapsed when the railways took over the transport
of all goods. Robertson subsequently became famous for its ostrich
farming, but this industry collapsed as well shortly after World War I
and thus the farmers of the area turned switched to wine and fruit
farming. Later, several successful racehorse stud farms were
founded. Agriculture remains the mainstay of the town's economy up to the
present day.
Tourism has also grown in
recent years and the town has several South African National Monuments,
such as the Pink Church (1859), the Museum (1860), the Edwardian-style
house 12 Piet Retief Street (1904), the Victorian-style house 59 Van Reeneen
Street (1914) and the Powder House (which used as a storage for gunpowder).
The wine industry in Robertson has grown from less than 25 cellars
in 1995 to more than 50 registered wine cellars as of today. There
is a number of wine cellars that receives the highest awards both locally
and internationally every year. Famous wine cellars or Robertson include
Graham Beck, Springfield, Bon Cap and Majors Hill. There is also a range
of small boutique wineries as Rosendal and Fraaii Uitzicht.
