Mintaro is an historic town in the eastern Clare Valley, about 128 km north of Adelaide, South Australia. The town lies at the south-eastern corner of the Hundred of Clare. The town was founded in 1854 by Joseph and Henry Gilbert on land purchased by Henry Gilbert in July 1849.

Mintaro features many original Victorian buildings, including Martindale Hall which was used in the 1975 movie Picnic at Hanging Rock, Mintaro Slate Quarries and numerous vineyards and wineries. In 1984, Mintaro was the first entire town to be declared a State Heritage Area.
