Історичні церкви в Bay of Islands-Whangaroa Ward

Historic Churches

The Bay of Islands contains some of New Zealand’s most significant colonial ecclesiastical architecture. This collection includes ChristChurch in Russell, the nation's oldest surviving church, and St. James in Kerikeri, known for its hilltop position overlooking the historic Stone Store. These sites mark the early 19th-century arrival of Anglican and Uniting missions, featuring a mix of original timber structures and later stone memorials that preserve the history of early European settlement and Māori interaction.
