 Welcome
to the Howick Historical Village
(A quality accredited organisation)
History is Alive Today…
Step back in time and experience the past at the Howick
Historical Village. Set in over five acres, this award
winning ‘living museum’
presents life in a Fencible
village during the early European settlement of Auckland.
The Village has one of the most extensive collections
of early colonial buildings in New Zealand including raupo
cottages, schools, Fencible cottages, a forge and general
store. Heritage gardens are well established and complement
the buildings within the Village.
A costumed guide is on hand to welcome visitors and interpret how the Fencibles lived and worked. Alternatively, visitors can stroll around the Village on their own and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of this unique attraction.
Special ‘Live Days’ are held on the third Sunday of every month (except December) and the Village church is available for weddings and naming ceremonies. Educational services are also available and school groups are welcome for curriculum-based programmes. |
