This rock tabernacle was commenced in 1906 and completed in 1909. The architect was Wayne Stake patriarch Benjamin F. Brown, who lived in Loa at the time.

The rock was quarried from the hills south of Loa. It was dedicated in 1909 by President Joseph F. Smith.

In 1946, a large cultural hall was added. The roof was replaced in 1963. Additional classrooms and stake offices were added in 1983. The building is still in use today.
