Overview

Nestled on the eastern slopes of the Mount Lofty Ranges and alongside the River Marne, Cambrai is a small South Australian town that blends historic charm with a natural backdrop. Originally called Rhine Villa, the settlement was renamed during World War I after the Battle of Cambrai, reflecting its layered heritage while retaining a tranquil riverside setting.

The locality incorporates the former village of Rheinthal, home to a Lutheran church, and borders the Marne Valley Conservation Park, offering residents easy access to open‑space recreation. Although the Sedan railway line once made Cambrai the line’s terminus from 1964 until the 1980s, today the town’s housing comprises the original township dwellings alongside newer rural properties that spread toward the adjacent Kongolia area. This mix supports a relaxed lifestyle supported by the town’s modest amenities and surrounding natural landscape.
