Cambridge New Zealand was named after the Duke of Cambridge, Commander in Chief of the British Army in 1864.

Our congratulations to the new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge - William and Catherine - on their wedding!

Our Cambridge Collection has Royal memorabilia going back to 1837 including a Queen Victoria Coronation Souvenir Pin Cushion. There are medallions and certificates to commemorate visits and weddings; tea towels, teaspoons and soap to celebrate anniversaries; and memories of the Royal Visit in 1954 when Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and His Highness Prince Philip stopped in Cambridge for lunch.
The visitors' book with their signatures is a treasure.

Here in the Cambridge Museum, as well as our archives and photographs, we have 13 semi-permanent displays of artefacts focusing on Cambridge history and a temporary display that is changed often.
From time to time we will display on this site, items from this side of our collection.
