It is the building which was erected by the first organized group of settlers to come to NZ, who fetched up on Petone Beach on January 22nd 1840, where they .were welcomed and fed and sheltered by the local te Atiawa people
12 years later they built this edifice and IT IS STILL AVAILABLE TO VIEW!

What’s more fascinating than to see history come alive before your very eyes.
This is the experience which awaits for you when you visit the OLDEST CHURCH (indeed the oldest BUILDING)IN THE ENTIRE WELLINGTON REGION.
