Description : The Primrose Cemetery is quite historical and offers a glimpse of the last major battle of the Anglo Boer War in the Eastern Transvaal (now Mpumalanga), the early gold mining industry and occupational diseases associated with it, an infamous incident from the 1914 Afrikaner Rebellion, the 1918 Spanish Influenza Pandemic and the 1922 Rand Revolt. This Cemetery, on the corner of Cydonia and the appropriately named Cemetery Road in Primrose, dates back to 1893. This makes it the second oldest in the Greater Johannesburg region (after the Braamfontein Cemetery). Approximately 20 000 burials have taken place here.
