War Stories form the Olveston Library

Olveston Historic Home is a time capsule, little changed since it was occupied by the Theomin family between 1906 and 1966.

Authentically furnished with fine art, furniture and artefacts from around the world, Olveston presents the life of a wealthy Dunedin merchant family in the early part of the twentieth
century. Olveston offers six one-hour tours daily, as well as a programme of events and special tours throughout the year. And the gardens and gift shop at 42 Royal Terrace are open every day, free of charge, from 9am til 5pm.

Visit the website to arrange your visit to this unique and authentic historic home.
