Bountiful Utah Temple, Mormon temple in Bountiful, United States.
The Bountiful Utah Temple is a religious building with striking white marble walls and a distinctive spire topped with a statue, situated near the Wasatch mountains. The structure stands as a prominent landmark visible from many parts of the surrounding community.
Construction of the temple began in 1992 and concluded with its dedication in 1995, following decades of land ownership. This development represented a major religious investment in the region.
The temple serves as the 47th operating facility of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, containing four instruction rooms and eight sealing rooms.
The temple sits along South Bountiful Boulevard and is accessible by car or public transit. Visitors should check in advance about viewing opportunities, as some sections are restricted to members.
The angel statue crowning the temple was struck by lightning in 2016, after which a replacement was installed with a statue originally intended for another location. This unexpected incident added an interesting chapter to the building's history.
