Wellington Museum

The Wellington Museum is a museum that reflects the region's history, located in a beautifully restored former cargo warehouse. It tells the stories of Wellington's people, from its maritime history and Māori and European settlement to its growth as a region and its evolution since becoming the capital. The museum has various exhibits, including Te Whanganui-a-Tara, which explores the city's natural and cultural landscape, and the Wahine Theatre, which commemorates the 1968 Wahine disaster. The museum also features a time machine, Ngā Hau, which takes visitors on a journey through Wellington's history. Additionally, the museum has a room dedicated to the building's architect, Frederick de Jersey Clere, and a grand Von Kohorn Room, which was once the boardroom of the Wellington Harbour Board
