Completed in 1988, the Heritage Center was built to preserve and display some of the furniture and belongings of the founder of the Kamehameha Schools, Bernice Pauahi Bishop, and her husband, Charles Reed Bishop. Designed by architects Dwight Kauahikaua (KS '70) and Dan Chun, the center's exterior suggests Haleakala, the Bishops' home. The architecture is consistent with the Hawaiian character of the adjoining Bishop Memorial Chapel. Enter the Heritage Center, and step back in time to Honolulu of the last half of the 19th century.
