Iolani Palace Barracks
These barracks on the grounds of the Iolani Palalce
in downtown Honolulu were once the home of the
Hawaiian Royal Palace Guard.
Copyright © Kathleen Walling Fry
The Iolani Barracks was designed by
architect Theodore Heuck and built in 1871
to house the Hawaiian Royal Guard. The building
consists of a central courtyard, a mess hall, kitchen,
dispensary, and sleeping quarters.
The barracks were originally located on the site of the current
Hawaii State Capitol, but in 1965 the structure
was moved block by block to its current location
on the grounds of the Iolani Palace. The building
is now the home of the Iolani Palace Shop, the ticket
office for tours, a video theater, and membership office.
