Come visit Historic Kirtland, a small settlement in northern Ohio, where members of The Churchhttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.photo.gif of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints gathered shortly after the Church was founded. Between 1831 and 1838 Joseph Smith and early members of the Church established Church headquarters in Kirtland, built a temple, and laid a foundation of strength for the future.
A discovery of Kirtland and the surrounding area begins at the Historic Kirtland Visitors' Center. A new film dramatizes the significant events that unfolded here during the 1830s. Guided tours of the historic village, including the Newel K. and Elizabeth Ann Whitney Home, Newel K Whitney Store and John Johnson Inn, begin here. These tours will help visitors appreciate the history of Kirtland's faithful residents while the Church was headquartered here.
Other nearby historic sites include the *Kirtland Temple, the temple quarry, the Sidney Rigdon home, the Kirtland Temple cemetery, the Isaac Morely farm, the Hyrum Smith home, the Johnson home in Hiram, and Fairport Harbor.
