Ka'ahumanu Church

Simple Chapel, Dedicated to a Queen

Description

This Protestant church was founded in 1832 by the Edward Bailey in the classic Protestant style; it's a simple yet elegant edifice nestled in Wailuku. Originally a simple grass hut, it has been steadily rebuilt with stone and then wood. In 1876, its current form was erected in honor of Queen Ka'ahumanu, who was the wife of the powerful King Kamehameha. Her influence was essential in spreading Christianity across the islands, and it is in her name that this scenic church carries on its mission.
