The three-story Nauvoo Cultural Hall was built in the early 1840s and served as the community cultural center of Nauvoo. Dedicated by Hyrum Smith on April 5, 1844, it was the tallest building in Nauvoo for some time and could be seen for miles around.
It was a great experience to watch the missionaries, of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, to tell the story of the members of their church back in 1844 as part of a show called Rendzvou. It is worth the drive to come and see it and other productions in old Nauvoo .
