The Tuxtla Gutiérrez Mexico Temple in Chiapas is a modern structure built by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the first temple in its state. Designed by architect Alvaro Inigo working with church architectural and engineering staff, the building features a classic modern design with a single spire crowned by a statue of the angel Moroni. Its white marble exterior was sourced from Torreón, Mexico. Construction began following a groundbreaking ceremony on March 20, 1999, and the temple was dedicated on March 12, 2000, by James E. Faust, second counselor in the First Presidency. It was the sixth temple built in Mexico and the church's 102nd operating temple.
