An open house for the temple will be held from Thursday, August 27, through Saturday, September 12, 2026.

Public Invited to Tour the Belo Horizonte Brazil Temple

The public is invited to attend an open house of the Belo Horizonte Brazil Temple from June 13 through June 27, 2026 (excluding Sundays). The architecture and interior design of the temple reflect cultural elements associated with Minas Gerais, one of the largest states in Brazil. The stained-glass windows feature shades of white, yellow and blue, inspired by the traditional patterns of Portuguese tiles present in the state's historical heritage. The temple is located at Rua Professor José Vieira de Mendonça, 1485, in the Engenho Nogueira neighborhood of Belo Horizonte.
