Beehive House – Things to do in Salt Lake City


The Beehive House was the official residence of Brigham Young, second President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The home displays the strong work ethic espoused by Brigham Young and the industry and cooperation exhibited by the Young family, like the activities of a busy beehive. Brigham Young conducted business and received official visitors in the Beehive House from 1854 to 1858 while he was both governor of the Territory of Utah and President of the Church. Church volunteers lead 40-minute guided tours of the home seven days a week; put the Beehive House Tour on your list of fun things to do in Salt Lake City. Join us on the Salt Lake City Tour or the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Tour to hear fun stories about early pioneer life in Utah.
