On 15 December 1873, Brigham Young and his family moved into this adobe house in St. George, Utah. The aging President spent the winters of 1873–1877 here in order to avoid the rigors of winter in Salt Lake City and to oversee the construction of the St. George Temple. The two-story home, designed by Miles Romney, is now maintained as a Church visitors’ center.
