This precast concrete replacement for the Brigham City Tabernacle was dedicated in September of 2012. The Brigham City Utah Temple was the 14th Mormon temple in Utah. On top of the 165 foot central spire is the Angel Moroni. The 12 foot statue is covered in gold leaf. The angel was the guardian of the golden plates, the inspiration for Joseph Smith’s translation of the Book of Mormon. Karl A. Quilter created three versions of Angel Moroni. His sculptures crown most of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints temples around the world.
