The Salt Lake Temple is a temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on Temple Square in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States. Dedicated in 1893, it was constructed over a period of 40 years. It is the sixth temple completed by the church and the fourth built since the Mormon exodus from Nauvoo, Illinois to Utah in the 1840s. The temple was closed in 2019 for remodeling, which includes a seismic retrofit of the structure. In 2027, the church will hold public open house tours of the newly renovated building, after which it will be dedicated for worship services.

At 382,207 square feet (35,508.2 m), it is the largest Latter-day Saint temple by floor area.
