Kirtland, Ohio, became LDS Church headquarters from 1831 to 1838 and at its peak, Kirtland was home to 3,200 members.[6][7]

In 1979, the Church acquired the Newel K. Whitney store, which is now a popular historic site.[6] About 100,000 people, mostly church members, visit the site annually and it was given a $15 million facelift to renovate and rebuild 10 buildings.[8]

The Kirtland Temple was used by the main body of the church from 1836 to 1838. Unlike current operating LDS temples, the Kirtland Temple was used primarily for religious meetings rather than ordinance work. At the time of construction, none of the ordinances associated with LDS temple worship, such as baptism by proxy, had been instituted. Operated by Community of Christ for over a century, the LDS Church acquired the Kirtland Temple in March 2024.[14][15][16] A contract between the two churches stipulates that it will remain open to the public for a minimum of 15 years.[14]

The Columbus Ohio Temple was dedicated on September 4, 1999, by President Gordon B. Hinckley.

The Cleveland Ohio Temple was announced on April 3, 2022, by President Russell M. Nelson.

The Cincinnati Ohio Temple was announced on April 7, 2024, by President Russell M. Nelson. The temple site has not yet been announced.
