Thanks to the large number of temples announced by President Russell M. Nelson in the last four years, Church News has created six new maps to document the location of all 265 temples worldwide.

Previously, Church News had just two official temple maps: one of the United States and one of the rest of the world.

The new maps identify each temple by official name and current status (announced, under construction, operating or scheduled for dedication, or under renovation).

See the six new maps below, covering these areas of the world: (1) United States and Canada, (2) Latin America, (3) Europe, (4) Africa, (5) Asia and the Pacific (combined in a single image).
