Auckland War Memorial Museum, Tāmaki Paenga Hira, tells the story of Aotearoa New Zealand, its place in the Pacific and its people. The museum is home to millions of objects and is one of the country’s most popular tourist attractions.
The Museum’s Natural Sciences collections are principally a research and reference assembelage that provides information on the distribution and morphology of plant, animal and mineral species in New Zealand and the regional Pacific.
