To really appreciate the global spread of the 265 temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, more than a single worldwide map is needed.
After previously employing two maps — a worldwide map and a United States map — to show temple growth, the Church News has plotted temples across six maps.
The map at the top has dots representing each temple location across the globe.
Additional maps below show the temples in tighter geographic breakdowns, with each of the 265 temples identified by name and current status — dedicated and operating or scheduled to be dedicated, dedicated but under renovation, under construction or scheduled for groundbreaking, or announced.
As of Jan. 21, 2022, the Church has:
- 170 dedicated temples, with two more scheduled for May dedications
- 44 temples under construction
- 49 announced temples
Of the 265 total temples, 83 have been announced by President Russell M. Nelson during his four years as Church president.
