A great museum with unique elements that you won't find anywhere else that look deep into New Zealand's history especially about the country during the world wars.

Free/suggested donation of $2. Open everyday between 10am & 5pm. Great museum that shows the history of Wellington. I like the ground floor exhibitions where they have hands on interactive didplays that highlight events through the years in Wellington. Level 2 has interactive marine stuff with a short film of the Wahine disaster. Level 3 has a Maori theme & a brilliant holographic theatre. The attic has a range of things that are generally a hands on look arranged by topic.

Great museum. I actually enjoy this one better than the papa. Interesting exhibits all related to Wellington. Interesting presentations, some great mini videos and interactive displays. Very well presented and always clean. Highly recommend visiting.

An absolutely amazing and interactive museum. Very educational for adults and children. They successfully created a truly immersive experience, full of cool facts and interesting information. Nothing like the boring museums you usually see nowadays. I actually really loved this place. It is my favourite in the wellington region. It's a must go for any tourist. It's free.

It's a must-see for visitors to Wellington. And even though it's relatively small it is absolutely packed with interesting bits of history of the local area and NZ as a whole.
Do not think you can run through this in an hour or two and do it any justice.response / report this review -

Cited as one of the top 50 little museums in the world, it's newly opened attic space combines the historical and the quirky . Exploring Wellington's own stories its worth combining a visit here with bigger brother Te Papa just 10min walk away

A hidden gem of a museum. Te Papa may be the big fish but this museum is a real secret treasure. Make sure to have a look if museums are your thing. Fun to explore.
