Ruapekapeka Pa Historic Reserve
Ruapekapeka is the site of the last battle in the north in 1845-1846. The pa was built by Te Ruki Kawiti with complex and cunning defence systems to deter British firepower.
Still visible on site are the earthen defences of the advanced British position. It is a site of national and international importance.
