Whare Taonga is a documentary series dedicated to exploring the unique architectural history of our Māori ancestors. Each episode focuses on a single site or a structure of significance with the building (or buildings), providing a departure point to explore not only the architectural history of the whare but also the cultural and social history of the hapū. A unique opportunity to hear historical accounts told by the haukāinga, different from the written works of historians.
