Sydney Australia Temple

Sydney Australia Temple, Mormon temple in Carlingford, New South Wales, Australia.

The Sydney Australia Temple is a modern religious building in Carlingford built with white quartz precast panels and terra cotta roof tiles. A single spire rises above the complex and manicured gardens surround the site, creating green space between the building and nearby neighborhoods.

Announced by church president Spencer W. Kimball on 2 April 1980, the temple was the church's first in Australia and its 28th operating worldwide. Ground was broken on 13 August 1982 on a 3-acre site at 756 Pennant Hills Road, Carlingford, previously a boys' school. Gordon B. Hinckley dedicated it on 20 September 1984, and a 1991 addition was dedicated by Russell M. Nelson.

The temple is not used for Sunday worship; members attend with a current temple recommend for ordinances in two ordinance rooms and three sealing rooms. Its name comes from the city, and the site at 756 Pennant Hills Road was previously a boys' school. In 2014 members marked the 30th anniversary with a video of personal reflections.

The temple stands at 756 Pennant Hills Road in Carlingford, northwest of Sydney, on a 3-acre site with gardens and mature eucalyptus trees. It is not used for Sunday worship, and after dedication only church members holding a current temple recommend may enter. Non-members can view the exterior, the sign and the spire from the street.

The angel Moroni was left off the spire at the 1984 dedication because local government restrictions blocked it. After the ruling was overturned, the gilded figure was hoisted into place on 3 September 1985, a year after the temple opened.
