Ná 'n bittere stryd met die Hervormde Kerk oor eiendom, moes Heidelberg 'n nuwe NG pastorie bou wat ingewy is op 5 November 1897. (Morné van Rooyen) After a bitter feud with the Reformed Church over property, the Heidelberg congregation had to build a new parsonage which was inaugurated on 5 November 1897. Transcription of blue plaque: HEIDELBERG HERITAGE ASSOCIATION 5 OU PASTORIE Built in 1897, for DS Adriaan Jacobus Louw, as Mrs Van Warmelo refused to move from the previous Pastorie, when her husband died. The bricks from the old "Kruiskerk", that stood next to the Klipkerk were used. The house was used by DS Louw until 1931, by other ministers, as an old age home and is now a guest house.
