Memory Grove Park and Meditation Chapel Tour

At the base of City Creek Canyon, lies Memory Grove Park, and in it, Meditation Chapel. Memory Grove Park was purchased by Salt Lake City in 1902.

Formerly, it was an industrial mill area, on property originally part of the Brigham Young estate. In 1920, it became Memory Grove, dedicated to soldiers of World War I. Come learn more about the park's history and its many monuments and markers, including Meditation Chapel.
