About Springville, UT

Springville was first explored in 1776 by Father Silvestre VĂ©lez de Escalante, a Franciscan padre. What became Springville lay along the wagon route called the Mormon Road that Mormon pioneers and 49ers traveled through southern Utah, northern Arizona, southern Nevada and Southern California. From 1855, each winter trains of freight wagons traveled on this road across the deserts between Los Angeles and Salt Lake City until the late 1860s when the railroad arrived in Utah. Springville was settled in 1850 by eight pioneer families who crossed the plains to Salt Lake Valley from the East and were directed by Brigham Young to settle 50 miles (80 km) further south. Incorporated in February 1853, the pioneers called the city Hobble Creek because their horses were often hobbled (by loosely tying their front feet together) and left along the stream to graze in the lush grass.
