The Indianapolis Indiana Temple is a temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) located at the southwest corner of West 116th Street and Spring Mill Road in Carmel, Indiana, north of Indianapolis. The temple was announced on October 2, 2010, by church president Thomas S. Monson. It is the church's first temple in Indiana, and is similar in design to The Gila Valley Arizona Temple, a single-level temple with an end spire and approximately 34,000 square feet.
The temple has a single attached end tower with a statue of the angel Moroni. A groundbreaking ceremony, to signify the beginning of construction, was held on September 29, 2012, conducted by Donald L. Hallstrom of the Presidency of the Seventy.
