Located at 50 North Main St., Alpine, Utah
Alpine has had several former names: Upper Dry Creek, Lone City, and Mountainville.
In
1922 the first DUP camp in the north end of Utah County was created and
named The Mountainville Camp. They have run this pioneer vintage
building since 1937.
Construction
started on this public building in 1857 and it was dedicated in 1863 by
the LDS Prophet Brigham Young. It was used for civic, worship, and
recreational purposes.
In 1906
electric lights replaced the coal oil lamps and candles. Later, the
cellar was dug out and changed into a basement serving currently as an
artifact room. The Hall houses records, artifacts, and pictures. Digital
copies of the photos are available for purchase on a CD.
