History

The city takes its name from Ricks, and was initially known as Ricksburg. The recovery was quickened due to the self-dependency and community cooperation of the people. The University began as a small high school-level academy on a site known as 'Mosquito Bend' in 1888. The Teton River flows through northern Rexburg, and left most of the city underwater for several days after the Teton Dam ruptured. The city is the county seat of Madison County, Idaho County .

Rexburg was severely damaged by the Teton Dam Dam Flood of June 1976.
