A brief history of the area
Initially, Wellington was a modest farming community, but its transformation began in 1853 with the opening of the pass through the Bain's Kloof mountains. Subsequently, the arrival of the railway ten years later caused a significant increase in the town's population, as it became a crucial transportation stop-over point in the region. The town was officially established in 1840, and in tribute to the renowned soldier and victor of the Battle of Waterloo, the name was changed to Wellington in honour of the Duke of Wellington.
