Delta

Nothing much remains of Topaz War Relocation Center, eight miles west of Delta. A monument in Delta City Park honors the memory of 10,000 Japanese Americans who lived at Topaz during World War II. (435-864-4316)

Fillmore

Mormon colonizer Brigham Young chose the settlement of Fillmore to be the seat of territorial government - and eventually the state capital - practically before there were any settlers in the area. He planned a state with cities radiating from Fillmore like the spokes on a wagon wheel. The Territorial Statehouse had barely been completed when it was judged impractical to have a capital city 150 miles south of the territory's major population center. The Territorial Statehouse is now a state park and museum. (435-864-4316)

Junction

The former Piute County Courthouse, located on US 89 in Junction, was built in 1903. Its stately architecture is reminiscent of the Victorian era. The building is listed on the State and National Historic Registers and is being renovated for use as a community center.

Marysvale

The Canyon of Gold driving tour begins at the Fishlake National Forest boundary in Bullion Canyon west of Marysvale and continues up the canyon for 2 miles. A brochure, available at the trail head, interprets ten historic mining features including Miner's Park with a quarter-mile walk through remnants of the canyon's rich mining era.

Spring City

This small pioneer-era town is the only incorporated city in Utah where every building is on the National Historic Register. The city has since become an arts colony of sorts, but its historic designation remains intact. A self guided tour map is available locally. (435-283-4321)
