Founders Heritage Park is a replica historic village containing many of the old historic buildings and artefacts of Nelson, giving visitors the chance to walk down a nineteenth century street.
During the summer months take a ride on the train, meet resident artists working in ceramics, wrought iron, stone jewellery and the ancient art of cooperage.
