Welcome & Nau mai to Cambridge Museum

Red at the Museum – what you need to know.  Plan Your Visit

Step inside the old Courthouse and discover a treasure trove  of  artefacts, photographs, and taonga.  Our exhibitions reveal intriguing insights into the people and passions that have shaped this area.

We have an extensive collection of artefacts and archives relating to the history of Cambridge, its districts and people. Our enthusiastic staff and volunteers work to build a rich archival resource of particular interest to students, family and social historians.

Our policy is to collect Cambridge-related archives, artefacts and photographs, donations of which are always welcome.

Cambridge Museum’s focus is on “Bonding People with Place.”

The Cambridge Historical Society Inc. own the collections and operate the Cambridge Museum with support from the community and the Waipa District Council. We invite you to explore our site and its different sections, and visit again.
