Welcome to
PACIFIC HISTORIC PARKS
AND KALAUPAPA
A small peninsula on the Hawaiian island of Molokai, Kalaupapa is an incredible example of how the meaning of a place can change over time. Once a quarantine site for those suffering from Hansen’s disease (leprosy), the park is now a gathering point for those affected by the disease, and visitors who want to see and learn. Kalaupapa is a refuge for those who’ve survived the disease and the isolation of life apart, as well as a safe, stunning, and evocative landmark and cultural touchstone.
Due to COVID-19, Kalaupapa National Historical Park is temporarily closed.
