A diamond found by railway worker Zacharias Lewala in 1908 set off a diamond rush that saw numerous fortune-hunters from around the world stream into the arid desert just east of Lüderitz. As a result of the discovery, the affluent town of Kolmanskop was established that boasted luxuries like electric lights, a large swimming pool, bowling alley and ice-making factory. Ultimately the onset of World War One as well as the diamond deposits in the area being exhausted caused the town to be deserted and over many years turned into the picturesque ghost town it is today.
