Whare Karakia o Ōnuku (Ōnuku Church)
Across the road from the marae, stands the red and white historic Whare Karakia o Ōnuku (Ōnuku church). The foundation stone for the whare karakia was laid in 1876 and the building officially opened in 1878 as the first non-denominational church in New Zealand. The opening was attended by many including Māori from iwi all over New Zealand. Intended as a place of worship for Māori and Pākehā, the church drew the two communities together.

Seating: 30 people
