Iron Mission State Park
The Iron Mission museum tells the story of development in Iron County when, in the 1850s, Brigham Young sent Mormon missionaries there to mine iron. Museum displays include horse-drawn vehicles used from 1850 to 1920 and a collection of Indian and pioneer artifacts.
The museum is in Cedar City. A picnic area is available, but there is no camping.
