Snowflake Arizona Temple, Mormon temple in Snowflake, United States.
Snowflake Arizona Temple is a modern house of worship constructed from imported polished granite in two tones sourced from China. The building contains instruction rooms, sealing rooms, and a baptistry for religious ceremonies.
A groundbreaking ceremony took place in 2000, and the temple was dedicated a few years later for public use. This building marks a significant religious milestone for the city.
The interior displays Native American patterns in textiles and wall details that reflect local heritage. Furnishings in pioneer style connect visitors to the region's past.
The building sits on West Canyon Drive and is easy to reach. Visitors should note that religious sites have particular conduct guidelines, so checking visit requirements beforehand is helpful.
One notable feature is the single spire topped with an angel Moroni statue that was repositioned in 2017. The statue now faces westward toward the entrance instead of the traditional eastern direction.
