Comparison of temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

Below is a chronological list of temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) with sortable columns. In the LDS Church, a temple is a building dedicated to be a House of the Lord, and considered by church members to be the most sacred structures on earth. Upon completion, temples are usually open to the public for a short period of time (an "open house"), and then each is dedicated as a "House of the Lord," after which only members in good standing are permitted to enter. Thus, they are not churches or meetinghouses, but rather specialized places of worship. There are 155 operating temples (which includes 3 previously dedicated, but closed for renovation), 14 under construction, and 13 announced (not yet under construction). Within temples, members of the church make covenants, receive instructions, and perform rituals and ordinances. Additionally, members consider the temple a place to commune with God, seek God’s aid, understand His will, and receive personal revelation.

The sortable columns used in this list allow easy comparisons of the different facts and features of each temple. For a list that includes pictures see this list of temples. There is also a list by geographic region with maps.

Note: Numbering of temples announced or under construction is tentative (which is indicated by placing the numbers in italics) pending the dedication of the temple.
