The temple dedication comes following an open house from March 12 to April 11, when 287,228 visitors went through the temple, according to Lindon City. The approximately 81,000-square-foot building was first announced in the October 2020 General Conference, and ground was broken in 2022.
It is the only temple in Utah Valley with two spires on either side, standing in equal prominence in size and height. It is also the first temple in Utah Valley and one of the first in the world with two baptismal fonts, meant to accommodate the high volume of youth members performing proxy baptisms.
