Rexburg Idaho Temple, Modern temple in Rexburg, United States

The Rexburg Idaho Temple is a five-story building of precast concrete with a quartz rock finish, designed by Bob Petroff and Architectural Nexus in a classic modern style. Its single attached end spire carries a statue of the angel Moroni, and 700 art-glass window panes, patterned with a wheat stalk motif, run up the front. A flat-roofed portico on round columns spans the base, and a public garden lies west of the building.

The project began with a groundbreaking ceremony on July 30, 2005, and was dedicated on February 10, 2008. Its creation responded to the growing needs of the religious community in eastern Idaho.

The 700 art-glass window panes carry a wheat stalk motif, a nod to the agricultural industry of the Rexburg area. Inside, murals by Rexburg-born artist Leon Parson depict the natural beauty of eastern Idaho. A cultural celebration on February 9, 2008, the day before the dedication, involved about 2,000 young church members telling the story of the Mormon pioneers who settled the Upper Snake River Valley in 1883.

The temple stands on a hill south of the BYU–Idaho campus, on a 10-acre plot, with a public garden area west of the building. It is not used for Sunday worship; after dedication only church members holding a current temple recommend may enter, so other visitors see it from behind the metal fence.

The temple was designed by the private firm Architectural Nexus with Bob Petroff, not by the church's own architectural department, because the church wanted a fresh new look. Its 700 art-glass panes carry a wheat stalk motif for the surrounding agricultural industry, and Leon Parson of Rexburg painted interior murals of eastern Idaho's natural beauty.
