At the King Kamehameha V Judiciary History Center, we promote civic education and engagement by preserving and interpreting the history of Hawaii through the lens of law, public policy, and the courts.

The King Kamehameha V Judiciary History Center is the permanent education facility and history museum of Hawaii’s Supreme Court. We exist to interpret and inform the public about the judicial process and Hawaii’s legal history from wa kahiko (the past) through keia manawa (present day). We are located on the first floor of Aliiolani Hale, located in downtown Honolulu. Admission is free!
