Pūrākau o Te Whenua explores the legends and tales of Te Matau-a-Māui, Hawke’s Bay. The special names given to hills, mountains, rivers, and streams of our region all tell a pūrākau (story) about the events and the people who lived on or near them. If you’ve ever wondered about the story of Ngā Tohorā e Whitu (Seven Whales) or how Lake Waikaremoana or Te Mata o Rongokako got its name you will find all the answers here. Free entry, open daily.
