Although I've never heard of anything called the "Mormon war" I can only assume you're referring to the religious persecution that the LDS church went through in that period.

After they were chased out by mobs and militia, the Mormon settlement of Nauvoo, Ill was more or less destroyed, but not entirely. Mainly the farms and homes of the Mormons who refused to leave were burned. Once they left, the Mormon temple that stood there was also burned to the ground.

The city exists today and the temple was recently rebuilt by the LDS church. However, Nauvoo is not the commercial hub that it once was. (at the time, it was as important to commerce as Chicago and other industrial cities.)

What year was the Mormon war?

There are three events commonly referred to as the "Mormon War": The Missouri Mormon War took place in 1838 between the Mormons and their non-Mormon neighbors in northwest Missouri. The Mormons ended up leaving Missouri due to the hostility they faced, so I suppose you might say that the Missourians won. The Illinois Mormon War took place from 1844 to 1846 between the Mormons and their non-Mormon neighbors in western Illinois. The Mormons ended up leaving Illinois due to the hostility, so you might say that the Illinoisians won. The Utah Mormon War took place from 1857-1858 between the Mormons living in the Utah Territory and the United States Government. James Buchannan, the President of the US, had heard a false rumor that the Mormons were planning a rebellious uprising, and sent troops to Utah to stop it. The Mormons thought that the troops were being sent to destroy them. The Mormons did all they could to hinder the progress of the troops and then packed up and moved south out of the path of the army. Eventually, the 'war' was won by negotiation, the Mormons agreed to allow the troops to stay in the territory, and the troops agreed to leave them alone unless they posed a threat to the nation.
