The Kohimarama conference of 1860 was held here, at the mission station at Kohimarama (later Mission Bay), Auckland. The conference was called by the government to justify its actions in Taranaki and to ease the concerns of iwi that were not involved in the conflict. The proceedings of the conference were published in Māori, as were numerous letters from chiefs around the country.
