freiberg germany temple

The Freiberg Germany Temple is a Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints located in Freiberg, Saxony, Germany. The Church announced the Temple in October 1982, ground was broken for construction on April 23, 1983, and the Temple was dedicated from June 20 to June 30, 1985. Built in what was then the German Democratic Republic, the Freiberg Germany Temple was the first LDS Temple to be built in a communist state. The East German government approved the building of the Temple on practical grounds, because of the many Latter-day Saints requesting visas to travel to Switzerland to attend the Bern Switzerland Temple. The government wished to minimize citizens' travel outside the G.D.R., so they requested and invited the Church to build a new temple inside their borders. Latter-day Saints popularly attribute a hastened fall of the communist regime to the Temple's presence and influence on the country.
