We visited the Museum on the 19th of March 2019. Another great Carnegie building with so much history just on its own. It was great to learn more of the history of the local area and to discover new and interesting facts concerning Hokitika and the surrounding area.

Really nice little museum, very interesting and well laid out . Learnt lots. Lovely well worth a visit to learn about the history of the place. For adults but also a room more for children. The room about the rugby is brilliant with its floor to wall colorful cartoon drawings. Worth a visit for just 10$
