Evaton is one of the Vaal Triangle’s oldest townships, with roots stretching back to the early 1900s and a significant place in South African history through the 1955 Evaton bus boycott.
One of the Vaal’s oldest settled communities
Evaton’s long history has given it an unusually established character for a township of its size, including older mission institutions and schools that predate much of the surrounding development. It sits within the wider Sedibeng municipal area alongside Sebokeng and Sharpeville, sharing the district’s mix of older and newer housing.
