The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is hosting public tours of the new Taylorsville Utah Temple from Saturday, April 13, through Saturday, May 18, excluding Sundays.

You can make a reservation to tour the temple at churchofjesuschrist.org. Comfortable shoes and modest dress are recommended for the free walking tour that lasts approximately one hour.

Parking is at 2780 W. 4700 South, and attendees will ride a shuttle to the temple. Please plan to arrive at the shuttle lot about 30 minutes prior to the reservation time. Shuttles will run every 15 minutes, and parking onsite will be allowed only for volunteers serving at the temple and vehicles with a valid state-issued disabled plate or placard. 

See a letter to area neighbors from the city regarding efforts to minimize any traffic and parking disruptions during the tours.

Construction of the Taylorsville Utah Temple began in fall 2020, replacing an existing church meetinghouse and recreational field at 2603 W. 4700 South. The temple is a three-story, 70,460-square-foot building with a central spire. Two-level parking at the site also provides both surface and underground parking spaces.

In announcing the Taylorsville location in December 2019, church leaders said the 7.5-acre site, situated at the southwest corner of the I-215 interchange, offers convenience for patrons and a beautiful landmark to beltway motorists.
