Overview

Step into the world of Friedensreich Hundertwasser: painter, architect, ecologist, visionary. Discover a diverse collection of original works including colourful paintings, graphic art & hand-knotted rugs, the largest collection of his art outside Vienna.
Hundertwasser’s recognition is not only based on his art and unique architecture, but also on his active dedication to, and interventions on behalf of, comprehensive nature and environment protection. Be inspired by living examples of Hundertwasser’s ecological practices. Stroll over the award-winning Afforested Roof and enjoy stunning 360 views of Whangarei from the cupola.
View Wairau Māori Art Gallery featuring contemporary Māori artists that explore indigenous themes and histories.
Self-guide, or take a 1-hour, interactive guided tour Thursday-Sunday to gain a deeper appreciation of Hundertwasser’s life, legacy, connection to NZ and commitment to living in harmony with nature. Guided tours are additional to admission.
