Located on Gillies Street in Kawakawa, a town in New Zealand's Far North District, the Hundertwasser Toilets is a public facility completed in 1999 and designed by the Austrian architect and visual artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser. Conceived as an artistic intervention rather than purely utilitarian structure, the building stands as one of the world's rare toilet blocks recognized both as a significant work of art and an independent tourist destination. It holds Heritage New Zealand Category 1 historic place listing, reflecting its cultural and architectural importance.
