Manaus Brazil Temple, Religious temple in Ponta Negra, Brazil
The Manaus Brazil Temple is a modern structure built from Brazilian granite in Ponta Negra, featuring a prominent tower and light-filled interior spaces. The building accommodates multiple religious ceremonies within rooms designed for prayer and spiritual practice.
The temple was announced in 2007 and completed in 2012, becoming the sixth house of worship established by this faith community in Brazil. Its construction responded to the spiritual needs of a growing population in this remote region.
The temple dedication ceremony included 1,200 youth participants celebrating the connection between local Brazilian culture and religious traditions.
The temple is situated in an accessible neighborhood and offers a quiet setting for visitors. It is helpful to check visiting hours and conditions before planning your visit to the location.
Before this building opened, followers from the region faced weeks of travel by bus and boat to reach the nearest house of worship. Its establishment ended the isolation and brought spiritual practice closer to the local community.
