The Magaliesberg mountain in The City Of Tshwane is currently an active cultural landscape on an urban edge. The survival of the area as a landscape dwindles in light of its denial for conservation status by city representatives. The fear is that the area, which has historically fallen under disrepute due to mass migration in the neighbouring towns, will fall back into this state soon after the generation of stakeholders upholding the sanctity of the mountain, can no longer take up this role. As time treads on, traditions evolve and programs are added to the mountain — a new generation must carry the cultural landscape. This dissertation becomes an investigation into how the discipline of landscape architecture can spatially contribute to the continuation of culture and generational engraving onto a cultural landscape but still aid in the retention of sacredness on the mountain in this city context.en© 2018 University of Pretoria.
