A front view of the recently christen Provo City Center Temple, showing its stained glass windows and front gate. Although the Provo City Center Temple was dedicated as the 150th LDS Temple, its history dates back to 1898, when it was constructed as the Provo Mormon Tabernacle. It was a fire that gutted all but the outer structure of the Tabernacle, that led its reconstruction, and dedication as an LDS Temple in 2016.
