A tabernacle had stood here since the 1850's. As the region grew, a much larger building was needed as the old tabernacle had been enlarged once already. This new tabernacle would serve the eleven stakes of the Church existing in Weber County at that time. This newer building was similar to the style of the temples being built at that time, London, England, Hamilton, New Zealand, and Bern, Switzerland. In 1956, the new tabernacle was dedicated by President David O. McKay a Weber County native. This new Ogden Tabernacle went under renovations in 2011 which prevented me from getting any closer.
