If you're making your way to the Barossa Valley, Tanunda is one town you should not be skipping out on! So, it's safe to say that Tanunda is absolutely worth visiting! The traditional owners of the land were here for thousands of years before the German settlers arrived in 1843.

Château Tanunda, Icon of the Barossa, is one of Australia's most historically significant wineries. Established in 1890, the Château is a cornerstone of the Barossa wine industry and is the site of the Valley's first winery, as well as its first vineyards planted back in 1843.

Enjoy a scenic walk at the Barossa Sculpture Park, explore the Barossa Goldfields Walking Trails, or take a historical walk through Bethany. The Mengler's Hill lookout offers stunning views and is another excellent free option.

The name Tanunda is a corruption of an Aboriginal word meaning "waterhole" or "abundance of wildfowl."

Tanunda's history is rich, with the traditional owners of the land present for thousands of years. German settlers arrived in 1843, shaping the town's unique heritage. Vine Vale, located midway between Tanunda, Nuriootpa, and Angaston, also saw settlers arrive in the early 1850s.
