Historic Sites
Making connections with the past.
During the summer, from May 2, 2010 through August 21, all historic sites are open from 9:00 a.m until 6:00 p.m, except on Sunday, when they open at 10:30 a.m. and close at 6:00 p.m.
Visitors can explore more than 40 historic sites from the 1840 period when the early members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, established Nauvoo. Restored homes, shops and public buildings – along with monuments, gardens, cemeteries and visitors’ centers – can fill several entertaining days. Demonstrations in many of the sites make for interactive fun for children.
