Friemersheim is a settlement in Garden Route District Municipality in the Western Cape province of South Africa.

A small agricultural community about from Groot-Brakrivier, Friemersheim was founded by a German missionary in the early 19th century. In 1869, through the efforts of Reverend Johann Kretzen of the Berliner Missionary Society, a school and church were built on the farm Gonnakraal, which Kretzen had bought for his sister.
