The Oldest Buildings In Utah Need Help

Utah is a state with many historic landmarks and National Parks but an easily overlooked area of historic significance, is old homes.  

With the beehive state’s rich history spanning back hundreds of years, preserving these historic landmarks is essential for future generations. Utah has an expansive Native American culture, historic homes, super old churches, and just a lot of buildings with a lot of history.  

Most of us have gone on school field trips to visit some buildings that withstood the test of time. I certainly have, though that was in Arizona. However, Utah’s historically relevant buildings and areas are usually pretty close to home. That means that locals can not only easily visit these places but also see how they are being treated.  

Preservation Utah, a non-profit formed in 1966 to keep an eye on Utah’s historic landmarks, has come out with its list of ‘2025 Most Endangered’.

The non-profit is aware that saving all the buildings and structures with historical meaning is an impossible task. However, calling on fellow Utahns to take action for the preservation of some of these places is much more feasible.
