The Bailey House Museum
Built in 1833, the Bailey House is now a museum showcasing Hawaiian culture, artifacts, paintings, and furnishings from nineteenth-century Maui.
Located in historic Wailuku Maui, Hawaii, built on the site of the Royal compound of Kahekili, last ruling chief of Maui, the house served as the Mission station for the Wailuku Female Seminary for Girls until 1847, then occupied by Edward Bailey and his family until 1888.
On the grounds are gardens with native Hawaiian and missionary-era plants, Hawaiian artifacts, missionary furnishings, and paintings by Edward Bailey.
Visit the Museum Shop
for good books about things Hawaiian, recordings of Hawaiian music, small treasures, and gifts - all made in Hawaii
