ABOUT “THIS IS THE PLACE HERITAGE PARK”
Step back in time and experience the Salt Lake City, Utah of the 1860's when the pioneers arrived in covered wagons to start a new life. Situated at the end of the Mormon Pioneer Historic Trail, the historic living history village incorporates about 50 period buildings with period docents in each. Barber shop, cabins, hotel, print shop, blacksmith shop, hospital, barn, and drug store are just a few of the buildings open for visitors. The park is very family and children friendly too: train and pony rides, a splash park, gold panning, wool spinning, butter churning, plowing, leather tooling and cart pushing provide great interactive opportunities for visitors. This is a one of a kind fun and educational opportunity for the entire family.

Pioneer Day at This Is The Place Heritage Park
The Salt Project visits This Is The Place Heritage Park for Pioneer Day. We got to participate in the parade down Main Street, witness a bank robbery, pan for gold, ride the trains and so much more! Can't think of a more fitting place to spend the 24th of July in Utah!
This is the Place Heritage Park Over view
Whether youre watching a craft, petting a farm animal, listening to a fiddler, eating penny candy from Z.C.M.I. or enjoying the fresh foothills air, a visit to the Park is an experience for all of the senses. Immerse yourself in the pioneer adventure!
One of the few real tinsmiths in the U.S. works his craft in Heritage Village. The blacksmith makes items that are used elsewhere in the village while explaining his trade to visitors. A similar working environment is found at the furniture-makers shop and the saddlery. See wool being carded and spun into yarn to be colored with dyes made from native plants.
We have puppet shows, rug making, crafts, and pioneer classes at the school. Visit the newspaper print shop, see how butter is churned and taste it on fresh bread, find old-fashioned penny candy at Z.C.M.I., see nearly-lost arts (such as basket making, rug making, needlework or hair weaving) demonstrated, or go on a handcart mini-trek.
Young visitors can help do chores by watering the real garden, beating dirt from rugs hung on the fence rail or scrubbing clothes on a washboard in a large metal tub. They can see and touch domestic animals typical of the era: cows, sheep, goats, chickens, horses and huge oxen even ride a pony!
This Is The Place Heritage Park So Much More Than A Monument!
9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

This Is The Place Monument
This Is The Place Monument marks the spot where the Mormon Pioneers first entered the Salt Lake Valley and marks the end of the 1,300-mile Mormon trail.It was here that Brigham Young stopped his carriage in July 1847 and, after surveying the desert valley near the shores of the Great Salt Lake, declared, This is the right place. On July 24, 1947, exactly 100 years after his declaration, a heroic-sized bronze sculpture of Young and two of his colleagues was placed atop a 60-foot pedestal overlooking the Valley.
This Is The Place Monument was conceived, promoted and erected by a State-appointed commission composed of representatives of various faiths in Utah, including members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Catholics, Protestants and Jews.
This commission selected Mahonri M. Young, the celebrated sculptor and grandson of Brigham Young, to design the monument. The monument stands 60 feet tall and 86 feet long; the figure of Brigham Young on the top stands 12 feet 4 inches tall, along with Heber C. Kimball and Wilford Woodruff.
The Monument recognizes the early Spanish explorers and missionaries, the trappers, the Donner-Reed party, and the Mormon pioneers, including Brigham Young, Heber C. Kimball and Wilford Woodruff whose figures stand atop the This Is The Place Monument.
