Steeped in the rich tapestry of our region's past, this museum offers an enthralling journey through time that promises to engage, educate, and delight visitors of all ages. Step into our doors, and you're stepping back into the bygone era of gold mining heritage and early settler life. Our meticulously curated exhibits offer a vivid snapshot of Waikato's storied past, with artifacts that speak volumes about the courage, resilience, and spirit of the men and women who carved this land with their sweat and dreams. From the gleaming nuggets that tell tales of fortunes won and lost in the goldfields, to the humble belongings of early settlers that whisper stories of hardship and hope, each exhibit is a testament to the indomitable spirit of our forebears. But Thames Historical Museum is more than just a repository of the past. We are a thriving cultural hub, offering a diverse calendar of activities, classes, and tours designed to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of our region's history. Join us for a guided tour, led by our knowledgeable staff, or enroll in one of our workshops where you can learn traditional skills like blacksmithing or pottery. Whether you're a local looking to reconnect with your roots, or a traveler seeking a unique glimpse into New Zealand's past, Thames Historical Museum invites you to step back in time and immerse yourself in the captivating tale of our region's history. Come, let us share with you the stories that make Waikato the extraordinary place it is today.
