Description

Dr. Dwight D. Baldwin did many things to the island of Maui. He was renowned for his educational advances, his prodigious medical crusade against leprosy and smallpox on the island, his efforts to weaken the grip of alcohol and tobacco on island dwellers, and his amazing knack for horticulture. Many things in Maui bear his name, and his home, thought to be the oldest building in Lahaina, was fully restored and turned into a museum. Furnished with period antiques and accented with information on the great man, the home is open to the public every day.
