HistoryKids & Family

The Card Pioneer Home was one of the first homes built on Lee Creek (that became Cardston) in 1887.

The home demonstrates the original 14’ x 14’ cabin structure that was the beginning of all homes in the new settlement. It also shows additional construction and has a history of the original families arriving in the new Lee Creek settlement.

There is something for all ages, including Pioneer children’s games, magnificent quilts, stories of local First Nations leaders, and more.
