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

The Jedi Temple, also known as the Ilum Temple, was an ancient structure on Ilum constructed by the early Jedi Order as they spread out from Tython and established training grounds across the galaxy. It was selected for its isolation and placed over a massive subterranean network of caves in which the Order's rare lightsaber crystals grew. While the training grounds were eventually abandoned, Ilum's temple served as a mecca for Jedi seeking to construct their very own lightsaber.
