Cardston Alberta Temple
With the majestic Rocky Mountains as its backdrop, the Cardston Alberta Temple stands as a proud reminder of the Mormon faith and the tireless pioneers who nurtured the growth of the LDS Church in a new land. Standing on a highly visible hill on the fertile plains that surround Cardston, the granite edifice overlooks the entire town.

Although this is a place of reverence and worship, parts of the Temple are open to the public, including:
