| Joseph Smith and his brother Hyrum |

| Nauvoo Temple |
The original temple was destroyed a short time after its completion. The church rebuilt and dedicated it in 1994, I think. Anyhow, the only thing remaining from the 1st temple was 2 sun stones. One of them is in the visitors center, the other is at the Smithsonian. The statue represents Joseph and Hyrum looking back at the temple as they rode by for the last time. They never got to see the temple completed. Very sad.
