About

Historical Landmark
The reproduction ashery and sawmill were built on their original locations and opened to the public in 2003. Missionaries lead guided tours through the two buildings. Together they show the united efforts of the early Saints living in Kirtland to consecrate their time, talents, labor, and worldly means to build up the temple, care for the poor, and preach the gospel.

    We traveled about 1 1/2 hours to see all that Kirkland had to offer and it was well worth our time. It was a wonderful tour visiting the different places. What a great guide we had and met everyone at the visitors center , all very nice. I would highly recommend this to anyone interested in history. The ashery was a great experience.

    Worth visiting to see how hard life was for these people and to see how inventive they were. Newel K. Whitney sacrificed a lot for the Church of Jesus Christ.
