Lion House


Constructed 1855-1856 as a residence for
Brigham Young and his family, the Lion
House takes its name from the recumbent
Lion, carved by William Ward, set on top of
the front portico. The house was designed
by Truman O. Angell and built of stuccoed
adobe. Brigham Young, second president of
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day
Saings and first territorial governor of
Utah, died in this house on August 29, 1877.
Since its construction the Lion House has
functioned as a community social center.
