About

Māngungu Mission was established by Wesleyan missionaries in 1828, under the invitation and protection of emerging Māori leader Patuone (Ngāti Hao). The simple house you see today was built for Reverend Nathaniel Turner in 1839. Despite its serene location, the house has a turbulent past. The largest signing of New Zealand’s founding document, The Treaty of Waitangi, took place at Māngungu Mission on the 12th of February 1840. Imagine a foreshore lined with waka as hundreds of Māori gathered to meet with the Crown. Inside the house, the collection includes the table on which the Treaty is believed to have been signed.
The transplanted mission house spent a hundred years as a parsonage in Onehunga before coming home in the 1970s.
