| At the
foot of the Suikerbosrand, Heidelberg began in 1862 as a trading station
built by a german, HJ Uekermann. A town was laid out around the store and
named after Uekermann's alma mater. During the First War of Independence
Heidelberg served as capital of the Zuid Afrikaansche Republiek under the
Triumvirate of Paul Kruger, PJ Joubert and MW Pretorius, from 1880 to 1883.
In 1885 the Witwatersrand gold reef was discovered in the Heidelberg district
and the office of the Mining Commissioner was established there.
Heidelberg developed as a typical rural Victorian town. Many buildings
dating back to the period between 1890 and 1910 have been preserved. |
