Wendish Pioneer Heritage Trail is a series of interpretive signs which were erected in 2012 at six sites of early Wendish settlement to the north of Adelaide in South Australia – at Hope Valley, Rosedale, Ebenezer, Neukirch, St Kitts and Peters Hill.

The sign for each district has been designed with three parts: on the left side there is the general background information about the Wends, in the middle are maps showing where they came from in Germany and where they settled here in South Australia, and on the right is information on their settlement in each district.





Published by the Wend/Sorb Society of South Australia, this book contains a wealth of information about the 6 Wendish settlement sites (Hope Valley, Rosedale, Ebenezer, Neukirch, St Kitts and Peters Hill).

But wait - there's more: a detailed discussion of the history of the Wends in Europe and Australia, shipping lists to South Australia, maps showing the villages in Lusatia, and a list of Wendish family names in Australia. And a lot of good photos, some in colour.

The book has 96 pages.
Cost $25, plus $10 postage.
