Description

This temple was built in Derry-Londonderry, Northern Ireland in conjunction with the Artichoke Trust. Catholic and Protestant workers came together with some of the Temple crew to build a 75' structure with David Best in his traditional style. It was open to the public on March 14 2015, for one week, for people to write memorials before being burnt. In a place accustomed to sectarian bonfires, the burning of this temple was a bonfire for unification.
