Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The Great Temple, commonly referred to as the Massassi Temple, was built on Yavin 4 by the Massassi to worship Exar Kun, a Dark Lord of the Sith who had enslaved the Massassi. The Temple later housed the Rebel Alliance base, known as Massassi Base, and the Jedi Praxeum. The Temple was destroyed during the Yuuzhan Vong occupation of Yavin 4.
