The Stockholm Sweden Temple (Swedish: Templet i Stockholm) is the 34th operating temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As of 2024, the temple is closed for reconstruction, which is expected to last three years.
The temple sits on a 4.47-acre (1.81 ha) lot with six spires rising above the pines of the nearby forest. A cobblestone path leads to its doors.[1] Prior its current, major reconstruction, the temple had a total of 16,366 square feet (1,520.5 m2),[1] four ordinance rooms, and three sealing rooms. The temple serves Latter-day Saints from the countries of Sweden, Norway, and Latvia.
