Description The 2.7 acre (11,000 m²) mausoleum was built by Kamehameha IV and Queen Emma as a burial site for their deceased four-year old son, Prince Albert. The mausoleum was completed in 1865. It was decided that the mausoleum was a more fitting place to bury past monarchs of the Kingdom of Hawaii and their families. The bodies were transferred in a solemn ceremony leading from Iolani Palace to the Nuuanu Valley. King Kamehameha IV takes ill soon afterwards, and passes away November 30, 1863, 15 months after his son. His brother Lot Kamehameha comes to the throne of Hawai‘i as King Kamehameha V. Immediately he starts construction of the mausoleum building. And they build the West Wing of the building, or the ‘Ewa Wing, which is completed at the end of January 1864.
