Kapiti Coast Museum

The Museum is located in the old Waikanae Post Office building of 1907, a Category 2 Heritage Places Trust building.

Local history takes centre stage with a display of the last inter tribal battle on the Kapiti Coast, portraits, telecommunications, whaling items. Interactive displays include a switchboard, a harmonium, typewriters, a tiny schoolroom with slates and a morse key. A fully equipped replica 1930's kitchen complements the collection.
