The British explorer James Alexander had already visited the area in 1837. Klein Windhoek is the oldest part of the town, having been established in 1840 by Jonker Afrikaner and his 800-strong group. He had requested the services of a missionary, and the Rhenish Missionary Society (RMS) built the first house in the area in the same year. In 1842, missionaries Carl Hugo Hahn and Franz Heinrich Kleinschmidt worked here. They called the place Elberfeld, but Jonker Afrikaner's name prevailed. They were replaced by Wesleyan missionaries in 1844. In 1896, Roman Catholic missionaries arrived. They purchased the RMS land in 1899 and converted it into an orchard and vineyard. Klein Windhoek is a residential suburb with mostly white population resulting in very high property prices. Many foreign diplomatic missions are located in Klein Windhoek including South African High Commission (old Berg Hotel building) and Russian Embassy. Klein Windhoek was a first location where German colonial Schutztruppe were stationed near Ai-Gams (Nama for "hot water") water springs. John Ludwig is considered to be the founder of Klein Windhoek. He opened «Ludwigslust» restaurant in Klein Windhoek around 1892 and was also engaged in tobacco farming. He was born in Germany on 03 April 1857 in Ludwigslust and bought a farm in Griqualand West in South Africa after completion of his service in the Cape Police. Unfortunately his farm was sold by auction in his absence when he was travelling in then German South West Africa that led to his decision to emigrate to Namibia in 1887. John Ludwig worked as a driver for the German Schutztruppe for some time and he moved to Windhoek in 1892 settling in Klein Windhoek. John Ludwig died in Windhoek on 27 February 1913 after a stomach surgery and was the first person to be buried in Klein Windhoek cemetery. His wife Lida died in 1954 and buried beside him. More settlers followed John Ludwig. His mausoleum and family burial grounds can still be viewed in Ludwigsdorf suburb, near Klein Windhoek. Small cemetery contains graves of the Ludwig and Hopfner families, ten other adults and six children including John and Lida Ludwig’s children, Angela and John. Due to its historical importance as well as for the architectural significance of its mausoleum John Ludwig’s graveyard and mausoleum was proclaimed a national monument on 01 May 1967.
