Brigham Young Winter Home and Office

Residential Buildings

The Brigham Young Winter Home and Office is a historic house museum in St. George, Utah, that once belonged to Brigham Young, the leading Mormon pioneer and second president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In his later years arthritis kept him from wintering in the Salt Lake City region, so a winter home was acquired in the arid Dixie region around St. George, which he occupied seasonally from 1873 to 1877.
