Frankfurt Germany Temple

Frankfurt Germany Temple, Religious temple in Friedrichsdorf, Germany

The Frankfurt Germany Temple is a single-spire temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Friedrichsdorf. It measures 28 m wide, 98 m long and 7 m high without the tower, with 4 ordinance rooms, 5 sealing rooms and 2,245 m² of floor space. It stands on a 21,000 m² site that belonged to a noodle factory closed in 1982/83.

Announced on April 1, 1981, the temple was first dedicated on August 28, 1987, by church president Ezra Taft Benson, making it the first temple in West Germany; Germany's first had been dedicated at Freiberg in June 1985, then in the GDR. After German reunification on October 3, 1990, Germany became the second country outside the United States with more than one temple. It closed for renovation from September 7, 2015, and was rededicated on October 20, 2019, by Dieter F. Uchtdorf.

The temple is a place where members gather for ceremonies that are not held in regular Sunday meetinghouses of their faith. For many who visit, the trip itself is treated as a meaningful occasion, and people often travel long distances to be there.

The site sits in Friedrichsdorf and is easiest to reach by car, as it is away from the city center and main public transport routes. Access inside the temple is limited to church members, so visitors who are not members can generally only view the building from the outside.

Just before the official dedication in August 1987, the building opened for public tours and tens of thousands of people came to walk through it. These open tours happen only in the brief period before a temple begins regular use, after which the interior is no longer open to the general public.
