Thomas L. Kane Memorial Chapel

Historic stone chapel and burial site of Kane’s founder.

The Thomas L. Kane Memorial Chapel is a historic stone sanctuary built by the community to honor General Thomas L. Kane, the founder of the town of Kane and a celebrated Civil War hero who led the famous "Bucktails" regiment. The chapel serves as the final resting place for the General and his wife, Elizabeth Dennistoun Wood Kane. It is a site of significant historical interest, particularly for its connection to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, whom Kane famously defended during their westward migration, making it a place of pilgrimage and quiet reflection.
