The
Lahaina Restoration Society oversees this house which is now the home of
Lahaina Printsellers, a dealer in antique maps and charts. It was built as a royal party house for King Kamehameha III and was later turned over to the US government. It was used by the government as a seamen's hospital. Many of the patients were whalers.
The US Seaman's Institue is open daily for business and admission is free.
