Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park protects some of the most unique geological, biological, and cultural landscapes in the world. Extending from sea level to 13,677 feet, the park encompasses the summits of two of the world's most active volcanoes - Kīlauea and Mauna Loa. This Historic Structure Report (HSR) provides a detailed evaluation of the 1941 Volcano House located in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The term "1941 Volcano House'' is used to differentiate between the current Volcano House and previous iterations, while encompassing the 1941 structure and all subsequent additions. The report includes a thorough historical analysis and statement of significance, a description of physical characteristics, and recommendations for treatment of this valuable historic resource to assist in retaining the integrity of the physical structure for its use into the foreseeable future as a Hawaii Volcanoes National Park concession operation.
