No. Apollo 1 was a mission that failed before it even began. The spacecraft and her crew were destroyed by fire while on the launchpad weeks before the vehicle was scheduled for launch.
From Wikipedia:"Apollo 17 was the eleventh manned space mission in the NASA Apollo program. It was the first night launch of a U.S. human spaceflight and the sixth and final lunar landing mission of the Apollo program. The mission was launched on December 7, 1972, and concluded on December 19. As of 2008, it remains the most recent manned Moon landing"
No, Apollo 7 was an 11-day Earth-orbital mission, the first manned launch of the Saturn IB launch vehicle, and the first three-person US space mission.
It was Apollo 7 in 1967.
Apollo 1 was not actually scheduled to even travel to the moon, let alone land. Had the mission actually gone off, it would have fulfilled essentially the same mission later accomplished my Apollo 7 (the first manned mission using Apollo equipment). Apollo 7 was an 11-day Earth-orbital mission, the first manned launch of the Saturn IB launch vehicle, and the first three-person US space mission. This would have been the mission of Apollo 1.

The launch vehicle used on all the Apollo moon landing missions was the Saturn V

Apollo was the name of the U.S. space program whose mission was to land men on the surface of the moon and return them safely back to Earth. They accomplished this using the Saturn V launch vehicle, the Apollo Command and Service Module, and the Apollo Lunar Module.
It was launched from the launch vehicle at Cape Kennedy.
Apollo 7 launched from the Air Force Station's launch pad LC-34 (this was the only Apollo mission that did not launch from Kennedy Space Center's launch pad 39-A)
