Holland House at 123 Rockfield Road, Penrose , Auckland

Is the home of the Auckland Dutch Community.

About

Established in 1948 the Auckland Dutch club has been supporting the Dutch community in Auckland for nearly 75 years.

Holland House forms the cornerstone of the Auckland Dutch Club’s activities. Particularly the monthly Dutch Market on the second Saturday of every month (except January) and our annual Sinterklaas events. We also host the Dutch School and Adult Dutch classes. The venue is also used by various community groups.

Our objectives are:

To keep alive the Dutch traditions and to maintain the cultural ties between the Netherlands and New Zealand

To foster feelings of friendship and good understanding between Dutch settlers and all other nationalities.

To assist its members in circumstances of need, where there is no adequate provision by statute or otherwise, and where such assistance if financially or otherwise possible.

To organise meetings and social evenings.

To do all such other things as are expedient or conducive to the attainment of all or any of the above objects.
