On a curve of the road at the high end of town, the church and its spore are a well-known Barossa landmark. The historic institute building is the centre of this active community and holds two major annual events. The town’s market each June raises funds for local facilities and features market bargains and premium wines. And Eden Valley’s Australia Day Breakfast on 26 January is one of the most popular in the region.
