An amazing resource and wonderful area to learn the local history and story of this stunning area. A special thanks to Tui, at the front desk, who took the time to talk to us nd answer all our questions. So lovely and friendly.
we found the museum to be very interesting with the content well laid out and quite diverse. we followed up with a trip out to the Denniston mine site which put everything we had seen at the museum into context. a great afternoon out.
This is a modern museum, that children will be fascinated with as well. We only had 1 hour to spend which wasn’t enough. It is a place you must see when visiting Westport.nWell done to everyone who has contributed to its design.
What a great museum! Full of great exhibits and loads of information about the rich mining history on the west coast. There is a mine exhibit you can go into and watch a neat video showing the old mine operations. We spend about an hour here but you could spend a bit longer if you read everything. Adults $10, children under 5 are free. If you are visiting Westport make sure you pop in here and brush up on the history.
a lot of reading to find our more about the history of mining on the coast. some really interesting machinery on display, but all in all a bit disappointed by lack of exhibits.nthe video is fascinating and worth a watch.nThe counter staff were really amazing and helpful however. knowledgeable, friendly and patient.nif there was a way to give them an independent five star review I would totally be doing that.
