About St. George Utah Temple
The St. George Utah Temple was the first operating temple. The temple site was originally dedicated in 1871 by Brigham Young and it was most recently dedicated again in 1975, more than 100 years later, by Spencer W. Kimball. The St. George Temple was the only one to be completed while Brigham Young served as president of the Church of Latter-day Saints. It has undergone some renovations since it was built, primarily to repair and update damaged areas.
