Zion National Park was officially established as a national park on November 19, 1919.

A bit of quick context: before it became a national park, the area was first protected as Mukuntuweap National Monument in 1909 by President William Howard Taft. A few years later, the name was changed to Zion and Congress upgraded and expanded the site, creating Zion National Park in 1919.
