1860 Engraving View of Salt Lake City Utah
c1860 German View of Salt Lake City
"Die Hauptstadt der Mormonen"
This beautiful steel engraving was published c1860 by Ziehl in Leipzig, Germany.
This authentic steel engraving shows
Salt Lake City from the north.
Salt Lake City was founded on July 24, 1847, by a group of Mormon pioneers
led by Brigham Young.
When the Mormons first arrived in the valley, the
region was part of Mexico. A treaty signed in 1848 ceded it to the United
States, and in 1850, the "State of Desert" became the Utah Territory.
The engraving clearly shows the city: the streets, houses, people,
and the surrounding
mountains.
