Beehive House

Beehive House

The second Salt Lake City home of Brigham Young, the Beehive House is modeled to appear exactly as it would have during Young’s time inhabiting the mansion. Visitors will gain a perception of what day-to-day life was like for the leader of the burgeoning Mormon community nestled on the fringes of the 19th-century American frontier.
