Maps and Tours
PRESERVING THE PAST FOR THE FUTURE
Historical Tours
Welcome to our “Maps & Tours” section where we will reveal some of the rich history found here in Kaysville and Fruit Heights. And maybe a few fun facts along the way too. For instance, did you know some homes built in the early 1900s have walls three bricks thick on their east side to protect against east winds? That Kaysville once had its own bowling alley? Or that the only president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints born outside the United States died here in Kaysville?
Whether you are a newcomer or a lifelong resident, it’s likely there’s a historical nugget or two you may be interested to learn. In time we hope to make available numerous virtual tours containing fun facts, and a walk down memory lane for those lifers. We hope you enjoy your visit here on one or all of our virtual tours.
