    The first temple in Spain, The Madrid Spain temple, was dedicated in 1999. Spain is home to more than 63,000 Latter-day Saints in over 135 congregations.

    Temples differ from the Church’s meetinghouses (chapels). All are welcome to attend Sunday worship services and other weekday activities at local meetinghouses. The primary purpose of temples is for faithful members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to participate in sacred ceremonies that unite families forever.
