Draper Utah Temple Pictures
The Draper Temple stands high on a ridgeline at the mouth of Corner Canyon in Draper — its granite spire overlooking the entire Salt Lake Valley from one of the most dramatic vantage points of any temple in the Church. Dedicated in 2009, and built from the finest materials including temple-white granite, African Makore wood, and French limestone, it is a stunning landmark for the communities of southeastern Salt Lake County. Our collection of Draper Temple pictures, art prints, and paintings captures this beloved temple in a range of styles and sizes.

About the Draper Utah Temple
Announced October 2, 2004 and dedicated March 20–22, 2009 by President Thomas S. Monson, the Draper Temple is the 129th operating temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the 12th built in Utah, and the 3rd in the Salt Lake Valley, following the Salt Lake Temple and the Jordan River Temple. The 58,300-square-foot temple is built from temple-white granite from China, Makore wood from Africa, and limestone from France, and carries a sego lily theme — Utah's state flower — woven throughout its interior design. The art glass windows feature a pioneer Log Cabin quilt pattern and remarkably survived a devastating fire at the studio with only minor damage to a single pane, even as the studio building itself was condemned. The baptistry is positioned on the downhill western side of the building, with floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the room with natural light, and the temple houses the largest sealing room in the state of Utah, seating up to 80 guests.
The Draper Temple's public open house in early 2009 ran for two months and drew 684,721 visitors — one of the highest open house attendance figures in Church history. The ordinance rooms feature hand-painted panoramic murals depicting Draper's Corner Canyon and the sweeping Salt Lake Valley view, giving the interior a uniquely local character that resonates deeply with members throughout the area.
