DESCRIPTION
Details (Known As) St John's Lutheran Cemetery & Chapel
Registered Name St John's Lutheran Cemetery and Chapel
Significance St John's Lutheran Cemetery was established in 1865 after the closure of the cemetery closer to St John's Church in Tanunda. The cemetery gives an insight into the lives of early German settlers in the area and exhibits fine craftsmanship and artistic skill in the carvings and sculpture found on the memorials. A central octagonal chapel built in 1940 provides a focus to the cemetery which is significant as a whole rather than as a collection of individual graves.

Disclaimer

While due care has been taken to ensure that the SA Heritage Places Database accurately reflects the South Australian Heritage Register and listings of Local Heritage Places in Development Plans, the State of South Australia does not accept liability for the use of the SA Heritage Database for any purpose. Users should consult the Department for Environment and Water - Heritage South Australia to confirm the listing of State Heritage Places and the relevant Development Plan for Local Heritage Places/Contributory Items.

In the majority of cases, the maps of State Heritage Places on this web site show the footprints of the most significant structures on a registered Place. However, sometimes they simply indicate the complete area of land comprising the Place. Work is proceeding to further refine the mapping of such places. It is also important to note that development control is not limited to the registered structures but extends to their setting and structures nearby (what is termed ‘development affecting’ a State Heritage Place). Hence it is vital that exact details of the listed place and implications for any proposed development be discussed with Heritage South Australia staff, as they cannot be deduced solely from the information on this web site. The inclusion of a place in the SA Heritage Register gives no right of public access. Permission to visit properties must be sought from the owners. The accuracy of the mapping of State Heritage Places is not guaranteed. Please contact Heritage SA ( https://www.environment.sa.gov.au/topics/heritage/sa-heritage-register) if you believe there is an error.
