The Tabernacle Civic Center

The Tabernacle is Rexburg's iconic symbol of community. Built in 1911 by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, it was purchased by the City of Rexburg following the Teton Dam Flood in 1976. The community has rallied multiple times to restore this structure and time has come once again to retain that legacy.
