Temples of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are buildings dedicated to be a House of the Lord, and they are considered by church members to be the most sacred structures on earth.

The temple is then dedicated as a House of the Lord, after which only members twelve years of age and older who hold a current temple recommend are permitted entrance; temples are not churches but are places of worship. There are 160 operating temples , 10 under construction, and 31 announced .
