Meet the early immigrants who braved the ocean to arrive, survive and thrive in a remote and inhospitable land.

The Immigrants

Re-live the stories of immigrants from the 1850s through to the 1960s, who left their homes, families, and possessions for a life on the other side of the world. Experience what such a journey would have been like in the 1840s by walking through our Rocking Cabin – a reproduction of a steerage cabin.
