K'Road presents: discover Symonds Street Cemetery
Join us to explore this significant cemetery site set in a secret garden of wild bush and streams.
About this event
Hidden among the bustle of busy motorways and inner city streets is Auckland's oldest cemetery. This setting of wild bush and streams is a significant heritage site and the final resting place of a who's who of Auckland's history - from the famous early settlers and politicians to ordinary folks. This guided walk explores their stories and those of the many communities represented in the burial grounds, including Catholic, Anglican, Jewish, Presbyterian, Methodist, and Māori.
