Asunción Paraguay Temple

Asunción Paraguay Temple, Mormon temple in Asunción, Paraguay

The Asunción Paraguay Temple is a temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Avenida España in Asunción. It has a total floor area of 1,000 square metres (about 10,765 square feet), two ordinance rooms, two sealing rooms and a baptistry. Its exterior walls are white-gray Asa Branca Brazilian granite, and a single spire carries a statue of the angel Moroni.

Announced by Gordon B. Hinckley at the April 2000 general conference, the temple was built on the site of Paraguay's first Latter-day Saint chapel, completed in 1964 and later razed. Ground was broken on February 3, 2001, and Hinckley dedicated the temple on May 19, 2002, after a public open house drew about 22,480 visitors. It closed for renovation in October 2017 and D. Todd Christofferson rededicated it on November 3, 2019.

The temple incorporates elements of Paraguay's national flower, the lapacho blossom, into its architectural features and interior decoration. This design connects the building's religious purpose with the local identity and natural heritage of the country.

The temple stands on Avenida España in Asunción, on a 7-acre plot that includes an adjacent meetinghouse. It is not used for Sunday worship, and after dedication only church members holding a current temple recommend may enter. Non-members can see the interior during periodic public open houses, such as those held in May 2002 and October 2019.

The exterior walls are constructed with light gray Asa Branca Brazilian granite, making the building stand out from the surrounding architecture. This specific material gives the structure a bright, modern appearance within the urban setting.
