St. Barnabas Anglican Church in Heidelberg, Western Cape, was consecrated in 1859, making it one of the oldest Anglican churches in the region. The church building reflects the Gothic Revival architectural style common in 19th-century colonial church construction. Heidelberg itself was established in 1855 as a mission station of the Rhenish Missionary Society, and the Anglican church served the growing English-speaking community in the area. The church remains a landmark in the town, which is located in the Western Cape's Overberg region.
