Te Manawa

Te Manawa, Museum of art, science and history in Palmerston North, New Zealand

Te Manawa is a museum, art gallery and science centre in Palmerston North, run since 1 July 2000 by the Te Manawa Museums Trust under agreements with the Palmerston North City Council. Its complex stands next to the Civic Centre near The Square, on land that belonged to the railway station before the trains were moved west of the city centre. It also houses the New Zealand Rugby Museum.

The museum was established to document and preserve the history and development of the Manawatū-Whanganui region over time. It collects and displays objects that show how the region and its communities changed through the years.

The name Te Manawa means "The Heart" in Māori, and its plural form, Ngā Manawa, also names the fire children of Māori mythology. The complex shares its site with the New Zealand Rugby Museum, next to the Civic Centre near The Square, on land that belonged to the railway station before the trains were moved west of the city centre.

Te Manawa sits next to the Civic Centre near The Square in central Palmerston North, on ground that once held the railway station. The complex also contains the New Zealand Rugby Museum, so allow time for both. Public spaces include semi-permanent and touring exhibitions, events and a shop.
