This is a replica of the home where the Smith family once lived.

Replica of the Joseph Smith Sr. home, built on the site of the original log house near Palmyra, New York. The Smith family built the original one-and-one-half-story hewn-log home not long after they arrived in Palmyra.

Significant Events:
The Prophet Joseph Smith studied the Bible in this house as he struggled to learn which church was right (JS-H 1:11-13). Moroni appeared to Joseph and told him of the Book of Mormon plates (JS-H 1:30-47).
