It is my honor and pleasure to welcome you to Washington Place. Once home to Hawaiʻi’s last reigning monarch, Mōʻī Wahine, Queen Liliʻuokalani, this historic property is also the official residence of Hawaiʻi’s Governors and their families. Washington Place strives to preserve its historical site and grounds, collections, and cultural heritage. Today, the home remains a gracious gathering place where the legacy of Queen Liliʻuokalani and the memories of all those who called Washington Place their home are still honored. May all guests enjoy their visit and gain valuable knowledge of Hawaiʻi’s rich history and culture.
