About

Wantok Place is a museum of Papua New Guinea (PNG) artefacts owned by the Lutheran Church of Australia (LCA) and governed by the LCA Committee for International Mission. Wantok Place was previously called the Louise Flierl Mission Museum and was housed in Hahndorf since 1998. In 2019 the museum relocated to North Adelaide where the new name Wantok Place was established. Wantok Place is managed by Timothy Pietsch with a team of dedicated volunteers.
