The Rexburg Tabernacle was built in 1911, as a meeting place for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Local church members supplied the funds for construction - $33,000. The grey stone was quarried on the Rexburg Bench, about four miles south east of Rexburg. The lighter trim rock came from the Archer-Sunnydale quarries, 10 miles to the south. The building was dedicated on January 7, 1912 by church president Joseph F. Smith.

The Tabernacle was registered as a national historic site in 1974. In 1977 a program was launched to preserve the building and the City of Rexburg acquired the Tabernacle for a cultural center and historical museum.

The Tabernacle Features a large stage, pipe organ and seating for over 1,000 people, including the balcony. The basement of the Tabernacle houses the Teton Dam Flood Museum.
