Join us for an illustrated talk by local historian Bruce Hayward about Austrian geologist Ferdinand Hochstetter.

The diary of his stay in Auckland in early 1859 has recently been discovered, transcribed and translated. Known as the ‘Father of New Zealand geology’, Hochstetter (1829-1884) is best known for his wonderful map of Auckland’s volcanoes.


In addition to his geological, botanical, zoological and ethnological observations, his diary documents the weather, the people he met and the places he went prior to his major expedition on foot through the centre of the North Island.

Alfred Buckland, the owner of Highwic, was among the prominent political and society figures he met at the time. Hochstetter stayed with him on several occasions, and together they undertook a three-day trip on horseback.

When: Saturday 23 August

Time: 2pm

Cost: Normal entry (Free for HNZPT Members, Adults $10, Children free)
