Millions of fans have toured Elvis Presley‘s Graceland home since it first opened to the public in 1982. The mansion was where the king of rock and roll could unwind and reconnect with family and friends. However, one room of the home was strictly Gladys Presley’s domain and remains off-limits to fans.

Elvis Presley’s parents, Vernon and Gladys Presley found the stately home located in the Whitehaven section of Memphis. They placed a $1,000 down payment on the home and surrounding property on March 16, 1957. They moved in two months later, in May.
At the time, Elvis was away filming Jailhouse Rock. The king of rock and roll did not join his family at home until one month later, on June 26, 1957.
The Presleys settled into life at their new home.
