TARAWERA LEGACY

The tragic 1886 Tarawera eruption can be explored in depth by visiting these three educational attractions.

Let your students discover this tragic story and experience the eruption at Rotorua Museum. The devastation, chaos and mayhem can be explored at the Buried Village with remnants, artifacts and remains of Te Wairoa village.

The Whakarewarewa Thermal Village is where many survivors of the eruption rebuilt their lives and families after that tragic night. Explore the wonders of the geothermal resources used every day in a living village environment.
