Story

The Nelson Provincial Museum Pupuri Taonga o Te Tai Ao is the guardian (kaitiaki) of social and natural history and Taonga from the Nelson and Tasman regions. It is New Zealand’s oldest museum tracing its origin back to the foundation of the Literary and Scientific Institution of Nelson in May 1841.

We are one museum with two distinct venues where people can share our history. The education and exhibition centre is located in central Nelson on the corner of Hardy and Trafalgar Streets and our collections and research facility is located at Isel Park, Hilliard Street, Stoke, Nelson.

Covers local history pakeha & Maori, exactly as expected for a provincial museum. Great location in centre of town. Small gift shop. Clean toilets. Air conditioning great for a hot day!. Street parking only. Recommended for overseas & NZ tourists.
An awesome place to visit with ever changing upstairs exhibition and a local / regional exhibition in the downstairs gallery. Highly recommend a visit.
The exabition slice of life was fantastic very informative with interactive displays and the rooms set up as they would have been years ago bought back memories and laughter from my Dad and myself.
Nice little museum with lot of history. Friendly staff.
Always worth a visit and the current exhibition includes the Dunedin 1000 children 45 year study. Fascinating!
Well worth a visit. Best priced museum I've been in
So much to learn about history of the area. We love it!!
compared to other museums I have seen in smaller centers it does not compare well, not worth the five dollar entry fee, the displays are mediocre and spread out to fill the space. Nelson does so many things so well but this facility is a disappointment.
Well presented, pleasant and diverse representation of NZ history, geography and culture especially about Nelson region. Very Good customer service too.
