More information
The New Zealand Historic Places Trust (NZHPT) is New Zealand's leading national historic heritage agency and guardian of Aotearoa New Zealand’s national heritage. The environment in which NZHPT is operating continues to be characterised by a growing interest in heritage, recognition of its social, cultural, environmental and economic benefits, and awareness of its importance to national identity. The distinctive characteristics of New Zealand's land and buildings are important to the way we shape our communities; socially, economically, aesthetically and culturally. The NZHPT believes the conservation of this heritage enables New Zealanders to develop a greater understanding of their history and identity.
