The Pioneer Style was a popular style of Utahn architecture most utilized during the years 1847 to 1890. The pioneers of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, also referred to as Mormons, trekked west into the Utah Territory to seek refuge from religious persecution in the mid-Western and Eastern United States. Because the Latter-day Saints were some of the earliest and significant settlers in the Utah area, the foundational architecture in Utah is largely influenced by these early settlers. Architecture in Utah is highly religious, consisting of temples and church meetinghouses, and European-influenced due to the origins of many of the settlers. Members of the Church valued the institution of education, an idea they carried with them from the Northern States, which resulted in

  • The Pioneer Style was a popular style of Utahn architecture most utilized during the years 1847 to 1890. The pioneers of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, also referred to as Mormons, trekked west into the Utah Territory to seek refuge from religious persecution in the mid-Western and Eastern United States. Because the Latter-day Saints were some of the earliest and significant settlers in the Utah area, the foundational architecture in Utah is largely influenced by these early settlers. Architecture in Utah is highly religious, consisting of temples and church meetinghouses, and European-influenced due to the origins of many of the settlers. Members of the Church valued the institution of education, an idea they carried with them from the Northern States, which resulted in many schools being established for their children. Entertainment was another highly appreciated and valued aspect among the early members of the Church which resulted in the establishment of many theatres and music halls. These are some examples of the influences behind many buildings and their purposes in the Utah's early years. However, the actual architectural designs of the buildings were influenced by other, often non-religious factors. With the railroad being completed in Utah in 1869, many non-Latter-day Saints came to and settled in Utah. Many of these newcomers were European immigrants resulting in the Pioneer styles being based on early Greek, Roman, and English architecture.” (en)
