Indwe is a small town in Chris Hani District Municipality near Dordrecht in the Eastern Cape province of South Africa.

The town is situated between Dordrecht and Elliot on the R56 road. It was founded in 1896 as a centre for coal-mining activities which started in 1867, and attained municipal status in 1898. It takes its name from the Indwe River, named after the blue crane (Anthropoides paradiseus, Xhosa: iNdwe), which occurred there in great numbers.[2] Indwe is a small town surrounded by a number of farms with a large number of merino sheep and cattle ranchers in the region.
