Introduction

Nau mai haere mai! Welcome to the Māori Court. Here you can discover the richness of Māori culture through stunning taonga or treasures – from magnificently carved houses to intricately woven cloaks to beautifully crafted jewellery and the tools needed for everyday life.

So let’s get started. Head to the large whare tupuna – or ancestral house – directly in front of you.

Look for the numbered headphone symbol in front of each stop on the tour.

If you’re unsure where to start, please chat to one of our friendly hosts.
