What remains of it is located in the present-day Free State province of South Africa and named after the town of Vredefort, which is situated near its centre.

The crater is estimated to be 2.023 billion years old , with impact being in the Paleoproterozoic Era. It is the second-oldest-known crater on Earth. In 2005, the Vredefort Dome was added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites for its geologic interest.
