Lyman House Memorial Museum
Lyman House Memorial Museum, Historic missionary residence in Hilo, Hawaii, United States.
The Lyman House Memorial Museum occupies a wooden building from 1838, featuring exhibits about Hawaiian natural history and missionary life in the nineteenth century.
David Belden Lyman and Sarah Joiner Lyman constructed this house in 1838 using native koa and ohia wood after arriving from New England as missionaries.
The museum contains mineral collections, historical artifacts, and exhibits that document the interactions between missionaries and native Hawaiian communities during the 1800s.
Located at 276 Haili Street in Hilo, the museum offers guided tours through both the original mission house and a modern building containing natural history exhibits.
The museum holds a rare mineral specimen called orlymanite, named after Orlando Hammond Lyman, who founded the institution in 1931.
