Barberton’s Garden of Rememberance and Regimental Badges
This area used to be part of the proud military unit of Regiment Botha which is not far away from the garden, but now it forms part of a suburban park. The area is visited by many people, from overseas tourists to military units, because it is also part of their history.
The garden has the coat of arms of many S.A. Regiments dating from the Boer War through to WWII, a memorial to the Hampshire Regiment who died in a rail crash in Easter 1902 killing many of its members. Also included are monuments in the Barberton Cemetery commemorating concentration camp members of Anglo Boer War casualties and others who died in the service of their country.
