The Territorial Statehouse State Park Museum, located in Fillmore, Utah, is a state park that preserves the original seat of government for the Utah Territory. This historical site offers visitors a glimpse into the early governmental history of Utah and serves as a testament to the state's rich past.

Architectural History of the Statehouse

Constructed between 1852 and 1855, the statehouse was originally planned to be a larger structure. However, due to a lack of federal funding, only the south wing was completed before the project was abandoned. This unfinished aspect of the building adds a unique element to its historical narrative and architectural appeal.

Museum Exhibits and Grounds

Currently, the Territorial Statehouse functions as a museum, housing numerous artifacts from the 19th and early 20th centuries. In addition to the museum, the grounds also feature two restored cabins and a pioneer stone schoolhouse, providing visitors with a comprehensive view of life during that era.
