Kemp House and Stone Store are two historic buildings located in the charming town of Kerikeri. Kemp House is the oldest standing European building in New Zealand, built in 1821 by Reverend John Gare Butler and his wife Charlotte Kemp. The house was originally used as a mission house and later became a family home. Today, it is a beautifully preserved museum that offers visitors a glimpse into the early days of European settlement in New Zealand.
The Stone Store, located just a short walk from Kemp House, was built in 1836 by missionary James Kemp. It is the oldest stone building in New Zealand and was originally used as a trading post. Today, it is a popular tourist attraction and houses a gift shop that sells locally made crafts and souvenirs.
Both Kemp House and Stone Store are set in picturesque grounds, surrounded by lush gardens and towering trees. Visitors can take a guided tour of Kemp House, which includes a look at the original furnishings and artifacts from the early 19th century. The Stone Store also offers guided tours, where visitors can learn about the history of the building and its role in the early days of European settlement.
Overall, Kemp House and Stone Store are must-visit attractions for anyone interested in the history of New Zealand. The buildings are beautifully preserved and offer a fascinating insight into the early days of European settlement in the country.
