Pioneer Rock Church
This church built of sandstone brought
from Parowan Canyon, started in 1863 and
completed about 1867. Was the religious center
of Parowan Valley. The large amusement hall
in the basement was used for school and
dances. A stage was erected in the south
end where pioneer dramatic association
presented plays. In 1918 church activities
ceased. By 1926 it had deteriorated. The Daughters
of the Utah Pioneers asked permission to
recondition the building for a memorial hall
which was granted.
