In 1561, the Edict of Saint-Germain of January 1562 formally recognized the Huguenots for the first time. However, these measures disguised the growing tensions between Protestants and Catholics. In 1685, Louis revoked the Edict of Nantes and declared Protestantism to be illegal in the Edict of Fontainebleau. On December 31, 1687 a band of Huguenots set sail from France to the Dutch East India Company post at the Cape of Good Hope, South Africa. Individual Huguenots settled at the Cape of Good Hope from as early as 1671 with the arrival of Francois Villion (Viljoen) and an organized, large scale emigration of Huguenots to the Cape of Good Hope took place during 1688 and 1689. In 1688, the French Huguenots arrived in the Cape and some of them were given property in the Drakenstein area. The Huguenot Monument of Franschhoek. Many of these settlers chose as their home an area called Franschhoek, Dutch for French Corner, in the present day Western Cape province of South Africa. A large monument to commemorate the arrival of the Huguenots in South Africa was inaugurated on 7 April 1948 at Franschhoek. One of their most important influences was of course their knowledge of the wine industry. Today the headquarters of the South African wine industry, the KWV, is to be found in Paarl. It is situated on one of the earliest farms (La Concorde, as it is known today) to be granted by Governor Simon van der Stel to Gabriel Le Roux., part of the autumnal fleet.

[[Vander_Stel-6|Willem Adriaan van der stel]] succeeded his father, [[Van_der_Stel-28|Simon van der Stel]], as Governor of the Cape in 1699; Willem van der Stel abused his official position to corner an over-supplied market in farm produce. Van der Stel was jealous of [[Tas-2|Adam Tas's]] wealth and easy going life, and in 1706 he used his legal powers to arrest and imprison him. Tas became a Stellenbosch legend when he had thispetition drawn up against incumbent Governor W.A. van der Stel and other farming officials. Tas and his fellow free burghers were protesting against the corruption and extravagant lifestyle of Van der Stel and the fact that abuse of power by officials led to unfair competition with burghers. The Tas petition was submitted to the [https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heren_XVII Lords Seventeen], the governing body of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_East_India_Company Dutch East India Company] (VOC), in Amsterdam. The petition was rejected and on Sunday, 28 February 1706 Magistrate Starrenburg arrested Adam Tas. From documents in the desk of Tas, Van der Stel established the nature of complaints against him and also the names of the dissatisfied burghers. Though several more burghers were arrested and punished, they were victorious at the end, when the [https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heren_XVII Lords Seventeen] in October 1706 categorically prohibited officials to own land or to trade. His wife [[Van_Braackell-1|Elizabeth van Brakel]] tried hard to get him released; when Adam Tas was finally freed after thirteen months, he named his farm [https://www.wikitree.com/photo.php/b/b4/Tas-2-2.jpg 'Libertas' (liberty)]. Van der Stel was recalled to the Netherlands in 1707. Sources:
