Iolani Palace was the official residence of the
Hawaiian Kingdom’s last two monarchs from 1882 to 1893: King Kalakaua and his
sister and successor, Queen Liliuokalani.
In 1893, a provisional U.S. government was established
after opposition forces overthrew the Hawaiian monarchy. The Hawaiian Islands
were eventually annexed as a United States Territory in 1898. Hawaii became the
50th state in 1959.
Iolani Palace is the only palace in the USA.
