Beaver Stake Tabernacle!

Beaver Stake Tabernacle
Landmark #64 Beaver County Visited: December 21, 2011 Plaque?  YES! 🙂
What is it? A plaque marking the first pioneer tabernacle of the City of Beaver!
What makes it historical? THE PLAQUE SAYS: On this site in 1865-86, a tabernacle was erected by the pioneers. Built of local brick, lumber, and stone, it was of pioneer architecture with large assembly hall, gallery, full basement, a tower and large bell. This building was used for church and public gatherings. Later a church school was conducted in the basement. After 76 years of service it was torn down and on this historic spot now stands the home of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers.

OTHER TIDBITS: That pretty well sums it up!

How can I Help the Helpers? HERE’S HOW:
