The British War Graves from the Second Anglo-Boer War (1899–1902) in Heidelberg, Gauteng, are located in the Heidelberg Cemetery. These graves mark the final resting place of British soldiers who died during the conflict, particularly in the latter stages of the war. The Second Anglo-Boer War saw significant military action in the Heidelberg area, including skirmishes and the British occupation of the town. The graves are a somber reminder of the human cost of the war, which resulted in thousands of casualties on both sides. The cemetery itself is a heritage site, reflecting the broader historical landscape of the war in the former Transvaal Republic.
