About the Business
Welcome to the Wilford and Phebe Woodruff Home, a cherished historical landmark nestled on North Durphy Street in the heart of Nauvoo, Illinois. This beautifully preserved site invites you to step back in time and explore the rich history of Nauvoo, a pivotal city in the early days of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Nauvoo, situated in western Illinois, served as a cornerstone for the Church, where the community united to construct the Nauvoo Temple and perform sacred ordinances for themselves and their ancestors. Today, the Wilford and Phebe Woodruff Home stands as a testament to the enduring faith and dedication of the Saints who once called this city home.
Visitors to this historic home, whether in person or online, can immerse themselves in the stories of early Church members, including the revelations received by Joseph Smith, the missions undertaken by apostles, and the thriving economy supported by skilled tradespeople. The Relief Society's compassionate efforts to care for those in need are also a significant part of this narrative.
Although the Saints eventually journeyed westward to Utah, the foundations they established in Nauvoo continue to influence the Church today. As a key historic site, the Wilford and Phebe Woodruff Home embodies the spirit of faith, service, work, devotion, and peace that can inspire all to strengthen their faith in Jesus Christ, share His gospel, and uplift their communities.
We invite you to visit the Wilford and Phebe Woodruff Home and discover the profound legacy of the Latter-day Saints in Nauvoo. Let this remarkable place inspire you to build upon the principles of faith and community in your own life.
Reviews
"I really had to go to the bathroom during this one, but the sister missionaries told really interesting stories. Zack signing off"
"Great character encounter possible there."
"It was so amazing to see Wilford Woodruff’s Home! It was one of the few that I got to actually go inside and it was peaceful to see what his home looked like. Everything in there looks quite authentic to the time period and I really enjoyed that about it!"
"Informative. Home was mostly the way it was in the 1840s. Faith promoting (if you are LDS). Part of a beautiful well laid out city plan of historic Nauvoo."
"The tour guide and sweet and very knowledgeable. Nauvoo is interesting in general and this home wasn't necessarily a major major standout. It was larger and it was cool to see the exposed beam inside. J would include this one on the list of homes to check out in Nauvoo."
