Step Back in Time and Experience Maui History at the Baldwin House
In the heart of bustling Lahaina sits the historic Baldwin House, the oldest home in Maui. Built in 1834, this colonial residence was where medical missionary Reverend Dwight Baldwin and his wife provided everything from medical and veterinary services to sewing and school lessons. The home became an epicenter for travelers, captains and even Hawaiian royalty. Now a museum offering guided and candlelit tours, this home contains fragments of the firepit and kitchen foundation, offering a glimpse into the family's everyday life. Traipse through the property's impressive gardens full of local and exotic flora such as banana and fig trees.
