Area Info

Thohoyandou, the former capital of the independent homeland of the Republic of Venda, is situated in the Vhembe Region of the Limpopo Province, South Africa. Located in the South of Vhembe district, Thohoyandou is on the main road between Louis Trichardt and the Kruger National Park.

With banana plantations, subtropical fruit, tobacco and maize lands, Thohoyandou is the lush agricultural centre of the Vhembe Region. The name of this town is TshiVenda for ‘head of the elephant’ which explains why the town is the administrative and commercial centre for the traditional Venda community. It was named after the great king of Vhavenda, King Thohoyandou, who ruled the kingdom from somewhere between 1690 and 1730.

A stadium was built in this town to celebrate the independence of Venda and was originally named the Venda Independence Stadium. In 1994, its name was changed to Thohoyandou Stadium. Today, Thohoyandou is one of the fastest emerging towns in the Limpopo Province and is also home to the University of Venda.
