The Lion House is a large residence built in 1856 by Brigham Young, second president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Used for a variety of purposes following the death of Young, the building was closed in 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and has remained closed for renovation and restoration, with an expected reopening in 2025. It is expected that its former restaurant, The Lion House Pantry, will be replaced by museum space as part of the restoration project.
