Star Valley Wyoming Temple, Modern religious temple in Afton, Wyoming, US
The Star Valley Wyoming Temple is a modern house of worship in Afton featuring white precast concrete panels and a spire rising 123 feet. The building spans approximately 18,600 square feet and displays clean, simple lines in its exterior design.
The temple was announced in 2011 and dedicated in 2016 as the 154th active house of worship for this faith community. It marked the first structure of its kind in the state of Wyoming.
A stained glass window from a New York Presbyterian church decorates the foyer and shows Jesus Christ in traditional form. This artwork shapes the first impression when entering the building.
The site sits on spacious grounds overlooking the surrounding valleys and mountains from above the highway corridor. Visitors should know that access may be limited to members of the faith community for religious ceremonies and gatherings.
The property covers about 43 acres and offers views across Highway 89 and toward nearby Hale Canyon. The hilltop location makes it a visual landmark across the gently rolling landscape of Star Valley.
