Webinar: Historic Churches of Maui
February 12 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
FreeHistoric architect Katie Stephens will describe preservation efforts at two Maui churches, including the processes used to assess and determine appropriate treatments, challenges, and current status of each project.
Wananalua Church in Hana, established in 1838, was known as the Church of the “Second Prophecy.” The first church building was made of pili grass and located near Hana Bay. The building used for worship today was built in 1842 and is made of volcanic rock with a cement of pulverized coral.
Ka’ahumanu Church in Wailuku, built in 1875 by Edward Bailey, exemplifies adaptation of the New England style of architecture brought to Hawai‘i, incorporating native materials in the construction.
Wananalua Church and Ka’ahumanu Church are listed in the Hawai‘i State and National Registers of Historic Places. Ka’ahumanu Church was added to Hawai‘i’s Most Endangered Historic Places list in 2013.
