SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Artist renderings for the interior of the Tooele Valley Temple have been released by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The temple was announced in April 2019 by Church President Russell M. Nelson. It will be located near the intersection of Erda Way and Highway 36 in Erda.

“These beautiful renderings depict the care and attention to detail that will go into the construction of this house of the Lord,” said Brent Roberts, managing director of the Church’s Special Projects Department. “The temple is our holiest place of worship. We believe this will be a place where Latter-day Saints in the Tooele Valley and beyond can go to obtain peace and divine direction in their lives.”
