Heidelberg, Garden Route, Western Cape

Heidelberg lies between the Langeberg Mountains and the Indian Ocean at the beginning of the Garden Route in the Western Cape, South Africa. Located on the Duivenhoks River the town has a real country feel about it and is a haven of tranquility for people looking for a country escape. This was not so in 1901 when a great battle was fought here between the British and the Boers in the Boer War.

As with most towns in this area the Dutch Reformed Church played a large role in its growth and this beautiful church is the hub of the town.
