DESTINATION

Nauvoo

In 1849 the area was occupied by French Icarians, a socialist sect that lived by the creed “from each according to his ability and to each according to his need.” Inner discord undermined the society and it was dissolved in 1858.

The Monument to Women garden, next to Historic Nauvoo Visitors Center, is a sculpture garden dedicated to women of the past, present and future. Each statue identifies a significant dimension in a woman's life.
