A National Historic Landmark
|
Service in the Lower Court |
As preservation efforts continued throughout the 1960 -70’s the Kirtland Temple received a new look with a fresh coat of white paint on the exterior walls. A few years later, the "House of the Lord" received the recognition of a National Historic Landmark in 1977. The temple shares the honorary title with one other historic site in Lake County, the James A. Garfield home in Mentor, Ohio, and less than 3,000 sites throughout the United States. Considered an exciting piece of Western Reserve history, the Kirtland Temple is visited by 40-45,000 visitors from all over the world each year. The building is also used at various times for special services and classes. The Lower Court of the Kirtland Temple hosts a community Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter service each year. |
