Pomaria is a town in Newberry County, South Carolina, United States.
Pomaria was first settled in the mid 18th century by German, Swiss, and Dutch immigrants escaping the poverty and harsh conditions resulting from the Thirty Years' War.
The first meeting of the South Carolina Lutheran Synod was in the house of John Eichelberger, who lived in Pomaria.
The land was donated by the family of James Haskell Hope, who later became the longest serving Superintendent of Education of South Carolina.
