Tourist Information
Located 28 km south-east of Adelaide, Hahndorf is a major tourist destination. 'Australia's Oldest German Town', It is a little piece of Silesia, Prussia and Germany in the Adelaide Hills.
It is characterised by beautiful shady, tree-lined streets, lots of advertisements and shop signs in Teutonic script, and lots of German tourists being entertained in cafes, bars and restaurants run by the descendants of the town's early German settlers.
Today it is one of South Australia's premier tourist attractions. There are few places in the country where you can drive through typically Australian countryside and, quite suddenly, enter a world which seems to have been lifted from Central Europe.
