CLOSED NOW - Opens at 10:00am

Hale Pa‘ahao (stuck-in-irons house) was Lahaina’s “new” prison in the 1850s. During the peak of the whaling era, as you can imagine, the small village of Lahaina was rampant with rowdy sailors who were ready for fun and relaxation along with villagers who were willing to play and trade with them. FREE 20-minute parking available in front of the Gatehouse Entrance.Hale Pa‘ahao (stuck-in-irons house) was Lahaina’s “new” prison in the 1850s.
