The Jones residence was located in the city of Moab, in Utah.
History[]
Henry Jones, Sr. and his son rented a house, and lived there with their dog Indiana,[3] after their move from Princeton, following the tragic death of Anna Jones in 1912.[2] During that time, Henry Sr. worked as a professor at the Four Corners University of Las Mesas.[4] However, when Indy was 15 years old, the Joneses moved back to the family home in Princeton.[5]
Behind the scenes[]
The Grail Diary replica indicates that the house is located in Las Mesas, Colorado,[6] before being contradicted by the Ultimate Guide which placed the location in Utah.[2] This early obsolete information was made perhaps because the real-world house used for the film is actually located in Antonito, Colorado. One way to reconcile the differences is to have the house be located in Utah (Moab area), but the college where Professor Jones worked (Four Corners University) remains in Las Mesas, Colorado.
In May 2008, it was put up for sale on eBay.[7]
The residence is now a bed and breakfast establishment filled with Indiana Jones memorabilia.[8]
