Prince Kuhio Park

A privately owned and maintained memorial for our community

Prince Kuhio Memorial Park was established on October 27, 1924 to honor the birthplace and legacy of Jonah Kūhiō Kalanianaʻole Piʻikoi. For almost a century it has been owned and maintained by the men of the Royal Order of Kamehameha I, Chapter 3, “Kaumualii.”


Rules of the Park

Prince Kuhio Memorial Park is a private park owned and maintained by the Royal Order of Kamehameha I, Chapter 3, “Kaumualii” with support from Nā Kahu o Hōʻai. Visitors are welcome to use our park provided they respectfully observe the following:

1) No public parking inside the park; parking along Lawai Road only.

2) No standing or sitting on any of the walls or structures; these are fragile archaeological features.

4) No harvesting of fruits, flowers, or fish without permission.

5) Remove all trash or waste.

6) No large groups, parties or loud music.

Student Video

This video about the features of Prince Kuhio Park was produced by students Kealaula Perry (gr. 8) and Loea Keanaaina (gr. 9) as part of the 2021-2022 Kamalo'ula Student Leadership Project. As part of their independent project component, the students researched, planned, wrote, filmed, edited, and translated the video to create a learning resource about Prince Kuhio Park. The final version was presented to their peers on July 1, 2022.

Stick together and try to agree to the best of your ability to meet the most important problem: the rehabilitation of our people.
