Rotorua Museum, Rotorua

April 22, 2013  •  Leave a Comment

Perfect light made this a very attractive building to photograph. This building was originally a bathhouse opened in the very early 20th century by a British doctor who promoted the use of the local mineral waters to treat skin diseases and arthritis.

After the war convalescing soldiers were treated here. 

Since then the building has gone through a number of transitions. In the 60s it shut down and was re-opened in the 70s as a night club and restaurant. This eventually folded and it shut down again before being converted into a museum, cafe and the original baths and the basement and loft area that housed the water pipes, are now open to the public. More images to follow.
