Later it became the official residence of the Governor of Hawaiʻi.

Roman Catholic priest from Belgium and member of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary,[3] a missionary religious institute. He won recognition for his ministry, which he led from 1873 until his death in 1889, in the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi for people with leprosy (also known as Hansen's disease), who were required to live under government-required medical quarantine in a settlement on the Kalaupapa Peninsula of Molokaʻi.
Shortly after Hawaiʻi became a state on August 21, 1959, the architecture firms of John Carl Warnecke & Associates of San Francisco and Belt, Lemmon & Lo of Honolulu were selected to work in partnership. Plans began in 1960, but groundbreaking for construction didn't take place until November 10, 1965. The Capitol was completed four years later and it opened on March 15, 1969, dedicated by Governor John A. Burns.
On the makai entrance of the Capitol stands "The Spirit of Liliʻuokalani," created by Marianna Pineda. Queen Liliʻuokalani became the first female ruler of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi in 1891. The Queen valued her people and devoted efforts to establish schools for Hawaiian children. She was also a talented musician and composer who wrote 165 melodies and chants. Most of all, she was a steadfast, dignified queen who put her people first.
ʻIolani Palace, the only royal palace on American soil, was built by King David Kalākaua to raise the status of Hawaiʻi as a modern nation. The palace was completed in 1882 and King Kalākaua took up residence there, followed by Queen Liliʻuokalani until the overthrow of the monarchy in 1893. ʻIolani Palace used as the legislative and government building for the Republic of Hawaiʻi (1894-1900), Territory of Hawaiʻi (1900-1959) and State of Hawaiʻi until the present State Capitol Building was built.
Forged in Florence, Italy in 1880, the ship that was ferrying it to Honolulu sank off the Falkland Islands. Believed to have been lost at sea, a replacement statue was commissioned and was erected in Downtown Honolulu and has become one of the most photographed landmarks on Oahu. However, the original statue was miraculously found and recovered in 1912. The restored statue was then installed near Kamehameha’s birthplace at Kapaau. On your way from Hawi to the Pololu Valley Lookout, make sure to stop in this small town to see this majestic tribute to the Kingdom of Hawaii’s first monarch.
