About City of Johannesburg (COJ)

Johannesburg , a youthful city with a rich historical legacy, traces its origins back to 1886 when gold was discovered in the region now known as the Witwatersrand. This momentous find prompted a rush of prospectors and fortune-seekers, who flocked to the area in pursuit of new opportunities. Today, Johannesburg continues to draw individuals aspiring to turn their dreams into reality. The city was christened after two officials of the Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek (ZAR), Johannes Meyer and Johannes Rissik. Johannesburg experienced rapid growth, swiftly evolving from a small settlement into a thriving metropolis. Notably, not even the Anglo-Boer war could impede its expansion. Throughout tumultuous times and beyond, Johannesburg has consistently been acknowledged as the vibrant heart of South Africa. Over the years, Johannesburg has witnessed numerous iconic events. It was the backdrop for the Springboks' triumph over the All Blacks in the Rugby World Cup of 1995. More recently, the city showcased South Africa's ability to host a grand event like the FIFA Soccer World Cup with elegance and panache.
