Diva exhibit was great and definitely worth a look. Unfortunately a lot of the rooms were closed while we were there but thankfully they were doing half price tickets due to this. All in all worth visiting if you have the time
Auckland War Memorial Museum – A Must-Visit Historical GemnnVisiting the Auckland War Memorial Museum was truly an enriching and unforgettable experience. It offers a fascinating journey through New Zealand's history, including its cultural heritage, involvement in global conflicts, and connections with other nations. The museum is filled with powerful photographs, engaging videos, and thoughtfully curated exhibits that truly bring the past to life.nnThe infrastructure is impressive—majestic high ceilings, open and spacious interiors, and a calming, respectful atmosphere throughout. It's a three-story building with plenty to explore, and visitors are provided with a map to help navigate each level with ease. There’s also a lot of parking available outside, and the views around the museum are simply beautiful.nnInside, you’ll also find a library for those who want to dive even deeper into history, a cozy café area to relax and recharge, and some amazing jet models and Greek sculptures on display that add a wonderful visual element to the experience.nnWhether you're a history enthusiast or simply curious about New Zealand’s past, this museum is an ideal place to spend an entire day. With a minimal entry fee and so much to discover, I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Auckland who has an interest in history, culture, or architecture.
Unfortunately, half the rooms were closed due to asbestos needing to be taken care of but at least it was half price tickets for the month. That said, what's on display is fascinating, from all the animal and insect stuffings to skeletons of Moa and dinosaurs. There's a rich history of Auckland with some great interactive displays too. And let's not forget the military sections which are so well done. I'll have to return when the rest is available for viewing.
A wonderful museum located in the beautiful Auckland Domain.nThe staff is friendly. The museum has wide variety of exhibits. They cover subjects such as Māori History, Natural History, Science and World Wars. I was impressed by the Japanese Zero that they had in the World War 2 exhibit.
A topclass museum, jam-packed with facts, history, and experiences to both delight and inform. Very much aimed at young minds with several areas dedicated to helping kids learn through playful exploration. For the first timer visiting, get a map or a guide. This place is rather a well-designed maze. Two coffee shops, one at each entrance. Some careful planning sugested visiting specific exhibits only and saving other areas for the next time to more easily make the most of your time spent during an afternoon here.nnWell worth a visit to gain some insights into the heart of Auckland and New Zealand in general.nnTwo thumbs up!!
