| Description |
English: Palmyra is a village in Wayne County, New York, United States. The population was 3,490 at the 2000 census. The village, along with the town, is named after Palmyra in present-day Syria. The Village of Palmyra is in the Town of Palmyra. The village is located east of Rochester. Palmyra claims to be the only city or village in the U.S. to have four churches at a four corner intersection facing each other. It is one of ten places in the world that has four churches on the four corners of two intersecting highways. It is at the intersection of New York State Route 21 and New York State Route 31.
The Palmyra Village Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009. It includes the Market Street Historic District, East Main Street Commercial Historic District, and Zion Episcopal Church. In 1830 the village was the site of the first publication of the Book of Mormon at the printing press of local publisher E. B. Grandin. Many other events in the early history of the Latter Day Saint movement took place in the village and town. The Book of Mormon Historic Publication Site has been maintained by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints since 1978 as a tourist destination and was restored and rededicated in 1998. |
