Historical Church
Letsatsi is famously known for its historic church which came as an assignment to Bishop Odilon Fages in early 1926 to establish, under his leadership, a Roman Catholic mission station at Vanrhynsdorp. During 1927 a church and school building was built and completed. It was decided to build a new church, as the churchgoers increased dramatically because of natives and families settling at the mission station. Father Lazarus and members of his congregation were building the facilities, and on November 25, 1951, the new church building was inaugurated.
