Antofagasta Chile Temple

The Antofagasta Chile Temple is a temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints located in Antofagasta, a port city in northern Chile. Church president Russell M. Nelson announced plans to construct the temple on April 7, 2019, during general conference, one of eight announced at that time. It is the third operating temple in Chile, following those in Santiago and Concepción, and is one of six in the country, with those announced or under construction in Santiago West, Viña del Mar, and Puerto Montt. Ground was broken for the temple on November 27, 2020, with Juan Pablo Villar, a general authority and presidency member of the South America South Area, presiding. It is a two-story building on a 2-acre site at Avenida Las Palmeras and Calle Jaime Padrely in Antofagasta. After construction was completed, a public open house was held from May 14 through May 24, 2025, excluding Sundays, and the temple was dedicated on June 15, 2025, by Gary E. Stevenson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.
