The city is home to Brigham Young University-Idaho (BYU-Idaho), a private institution operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church).HistoryRexburg was founded in March, 1883 when a group of pioneers settled along the banks of the Teton River. They had been sent by church leaders in Salt Lake City, Utah, under the direction of Thomas E. Ricks, to settle the Upper Snake River Valley. The new community, named Rexburg after their leader (Ricks being German for Rex or King) quickly attracted men and women eager to colonize the West.
