Daughters of Utah Pioneers - The Pioneer Memorial Museum

The Pioneer Memorial Museum is dedicated to perpetuating the names and achievements of those men, women and children who founded the Utah commonwealth. Ranging from the preservation of historic landmarks to the education of thousands of school children and other citizens about the pioneer forebears, the museum strives to present the importance of Utah’s state history and the people that worked to create it.

The Pioneer Memorial Museum is noted as the world’s largest collection of artifacts on one particular subject, and features displays and collections of memorabilia from the time the earliest settlers entered the Valley of the Great Salt Lake until the joining of the railroads at a location known as Promontory Point, Utah, on May 10, 1869.
