The town was founded in 1871, thanks to the discovery of the first diamond in the area by a farmer, Mr. J.J. de Klerk, in 1870. In the same year Mr. De Klerk's farm was declared public diggings. The Jagersfontein diamond mine is the oldest of its kind in the world, and two of the ten biggest diamonds ever found (the 972 carat Excelsior diamond and the 637 carat Reitz diamond) come from here.
