Check out some of South Australia’s most iconic heritage places captured in photos

If you love South Australia’s heritage places, you’re in for a treat. A popular photography competition has captured some stunning photos of the state’s most historic buildings.

Not only can you check out the 20 finalists, but you also have the chance to vote for the winner.

It’s all part of the Heritage SnAps 2021 competition brought to you by Heritage South Australia in partnership with the South Australian Heritage Council.

About the competition

Heritage SnAps is about showcasing – through the public’s lens – South Australia’s 2,300 wonderful state Heritage-Listed places and 17 State Heritage Areas and celebrating our maritime and coastal heritage.

The competition gives budding photographers a great incentive to get out and explore the state’s iconic and lesser-known heritage places.

And it’s a great opportunity for people who see their photographic masterpieces to learn why these heritage places are significant.

For this year's competition, Restaurant Botanic has come on board as the proud major sponsor.
