Our tours are conducted by people who live in the village. We are locals who live, love, and promote our heritage-listed village. Our tour is therefore filled with loads of local content. We have many stories, but our two favorites are honoring the Prussian 'old Lutherans' who escaped religious persecution to flee to South Australia. A place they didn't even know existed. The other is the one about the Prussian pioneering women and their courage and tenacity in saving the colony from starvation. You'll leave Hahndorf with stories to last a lifetime to share with family and friends.
