Concordia was a locality in the Barossa Valley, South Australia, situated 5 km ENE of Gawler.
Concordia was a subdivision of section 465, Hundred of Barossa, and named after Concordia School, which was opened by Frederick Sickovich in 1861 or earlier. It is situated north of the Barossa Valley Way, between Gawler and Sandy Creek.
Manning asserts that it was named for Concordia, the Roman Goddess of Peace and Harmony, and is very commonly used in connection with Lutheran institutions.
The Concordia cemetery is located on the west side of Teusner Road
