List of historic places in Dunedin facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

This page lists many amazing historic places in Dunedin, a city in New Zealand. These special spots include old buildings, important areas, and sites that tell us about the past. They are all part of the New Zealand Heritage List / Rārangi Kōrero, which is like a national register of important historical sites. Some places are also important to the local community.

The Māori were the first to settle in the Otago region, including the Dunedin area. Later, Europeans arrived, and Dunedin became a big centre for whaling. A huge building boom happened in the 1860s because of the gold rush. Many of these old buildings and sites are still around today because the city's population didn't grow as fast in the 20th century. Dunedin City is quite large, covering Otago Harbour, the Taieri Plains, and even some grassy mountains near Middlemarch. This means some of the historic places are out in the countryside!

The national register, managed by Heritage New Zealand, groups historical places into different types:

Historic places (Category 1 and 2)
Historic areas
Wāhi Tūpuna (places important for ancestors and traditions)
Wāhi Tapu (sacred spiritual sites)
Wāhi Tapu areas

As of November 2018, Otago had 827 listings, with 207 of them being top-level Category 1 historic places. This list focuses on those within Dunedin City. For example, the Huriawa Pā site (a fortified village) is a Wāhi Tapu Area, and Toitu Tauraka Waka is a Wāhi Tūpuna. The Dunedin City Council also has its own Heritage Register for buildings that make the city special.
