Mission Houses Museum

A visit to Mission Houses Museum will carry you away to the nineteenth century when Protestant Missionaries from New England established the Sandwich Islands Mission in 1820. The Museum is the original location for the Honolulu Mission Station which served as the headquarters, or main station, for the Sandwich Islands Mission between 1821 and 1863.

As a National Historic Landmark, Mission Houses Museum offers intimate and intriguing encounters with Hawaii’s past and people; exploring cultural traditions and examining cultural change in a unique and welcoming environment.

The settlement was built in 1831, and three of the original buildings still remain on the site in historic downtown Honolulu.
