Laudium is a residential area in Centurion, South Africa, which was proclaimed an Indian township in 1961. Most Indians were forced out of their homes in Pretoria into this new place where some of them built beautiful new homes. As for its former inhabitants, older photographs show remains of circular type dwellings of its former inhabitants, to the west of Laudium. Laudium has 3 extensions which were completed in 1976, 1978 and 1983, respectively. Laudium was initially part of Pretoria but it was incorporated into Centurion in 2000.
