The Chief Son-I-Hat's Whale House and Totems Historic District is a historic district encompassing the relocated remnants of Old Kasaan, a historic village of the Haida people in Prince of Wales–Hyder Census Area, Alaska. Now located in new Kasaan, the property includes the c. 1880 clan house of Chief Son-I-Hat, the Haida leader who oversaw the relocation of the people from Old to New Kasaan, and a totem pole he moved. In the 1930s, crews from the Civilian Conservation Corps relocated and/or replicated additional totem poles at the house site, restored the house, constructed a small park, and cut a trail from the center of new Kasaan to the park and adjacent cemeteries.
The 7.5-acre (3.0 ha) site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.
