Just wow! On our stroll through Dunedin we came across the museum and went in.nnTo our surprise we didn’t need a ticket no entrance fee. There’s a gift shop and a nice cafe at the entrance and the museum takes you all the way through the history from Maori people, the gold rush until recent stuff.nnUnfortunately we “just” had 3 hours and just got to the middle of the museum. Definitely going to come back someday and take at least 1/2 day to see the rest of it.
Really good huge museum with something for everyone. It's free but they would like donations.nnWell curated items from the Maori settlers, the first colonial settler's and the development of Dunedin.nnWe enjoyed all of it.
The museum provides a great look through time. There's an education centre that includes toys, books and dress ups for toddlers. This part closed at 4.30pm on the Saturday we visited. There's a section with restored vehicles. Kids can climb into a tram and the back of a fire engine, bus and police car. They can also try sitting on an old penny farthing bicycle.
Great museum! I thought it was going to be a short stroll around the museum but we spent a solid 3 hours here. There are plenty of cool and informative exhibits. We really enjoyed our time here!
This was a great little find in Dunedin. We were looking to fill some time and stumbled across this museum and it far exceeded my expectations for a free museum. Definitely worth the visit.
