Akaroa Museum - Te Whare Taonga

Akaroa Museum reflects the culture of the community in all its aspects ­ historical, social, cultural and contemporary.
At the front of the museum is the Langlois-Eteveneaux House constructed in Louis Philippe style in 1841. The museum is a top Akaroa visitor attraction. The museum consists of several structures of different ages and construction types, three of which are heritage buildings: Langlois-Eteveneaux Cottage, the old Akaroa Court House and the Custom House. Following earthquake damage, the different buildings are gradually being reopened.
