Firth Tower Museum
Tower Road, Matamata

Enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of a 19th century farm setting, with wide lawns and shady trees. Picnic under the venerable oaks or take a stroll through five acres of extensive grounds and gardens. Learn something of life in a more leisured age through our museum displays housed in 13 buildings.

The tower stands on rising ground commanding an extensive view of the surrounding country. The Firth Tower Historical Reserve is administered by the Matamata-Piako District Council and museum exhibits and displays are the work of the Matamata Historical Society. The Heritage Centre houses the archives of the Matamata District.
