Gazing up at the Malvern Church, did you ever wonder how it got its name? The church stands proudly here in Queensburgh, a town southwest of Durban. Queensburgh itself has a fascinating history intertwined with Malvern. In 1924, four townships, including Malvern, combined to form the town of Malvern. The name likely comes from the Malvern Hills of England, a beautiful range known for its stunning views. This connection reflects the area’s early settlers, many of whom sought to escape Durban’s humidity for these cooler hills. They built homes and farms here, creating a vibrant community. The town flourished, and in 1952, a royal tribute reshaped its identity. To honor Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation, Malvern was renamed Queensburgh. So, the Malvern Church, while located in Queensburgh, carries a piece of the town’s original name and its historical connection to those early settlers who sought refuge in the hills.
