The Sevier Ward Church is a historic church in Sevier, Utah. It was built in 1930 by John Marius Johnson, an immigrant from Denmark who became a "well-known stonemason" in Utah,[2] on land that belonged to J.C. Baierline, and deeded to Mormon Bishop Levie in 1933.[3] In 1973, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints sold the building to Martha Carlsruh, who remodelled it as an antique store.[3] The building was vacant by 1980.[3]
Its architecture was described as having "rather eclectic design", "suggestive of a New England meetinghouse because of the temple-like central mass fronted by an extending, gabled pavilion. This pavilion has Greek returns and is pierced with a fanlight at the top, a diamond shaped window and round arched doorway which also has a fanlight. On the north elevation are five round arched windows and on the south are three round arched windows and an extending pavilion similar to the east pavilion."[3]
It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since June 24, 1980.[1]
