Specialising in the history and memorabilia of Devonport, Auckland.
The Devonport Museum specialises in memorabilia, photographs and records pertaining primarily to the history of Devonport.
Our focus is on collecting and preserving artifacts and information about Devonport and providing interesting displays and a basis for research for all ages. Displays include natural and geological history, local landmarks, settlement of the area, social, maritime and transport history, tools, toys and family and household effects. We provide access to some display material, a research service, and a place to receive and process items and information of local interest.
We are located in the beautiful Mt Cambria reserve at 33A Vauxhall Road, in Devonport.
This is a short 15 minute walk from the village shops, along the Devonport waterfront and then up Church St past the historic Holy Trinity Church and bear right into Vauxhall Road.
