March 27, 1836 - The first structure of its kind to be built by the Church of the Latter Day Saints, the Kirtland Temple was constructed under the direction of founder Joseph Smith Jr. and dedicated on this day. Smith would later be killed by a mob in Carthage, Ill., but not before he had visions of Adam, Abraham, Jesus, Moses and Elijah at this pulpit.
