The Pioneer Memorial Museum is a history museum operated by the Daughters of Utah Pioneers (DUP) on Capitol Hill in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States.[1] The museum hosts a large collection of artifacts related to the Mormon pioneers and early Utah, along with libraries containing pioneer biographies and photographs.
The building also serves as headquarters for the DUP, which has hundreds of local units (called "camps") in communities throughout the Mormon corridor, many of which operate their own satellite museums.[2]
