Hindu Temple & Cultural Center of Iowa History:
The Iowa Cultural Center’s Hindu Temple (HTCC) is a place of worship for Hindus living in central Iowa. This temple follows Vedic traditions and rituals practiced in India for over 2000 years.
Located on the banks of the Des Moines River, 4 miles south of Madrid, on Hyway 17, HTCC offers a peaceful setting for meditation and prayer.
The idea of having a place of worship for the Hindu community began in early 2000 and, with the dedication and hard work of several donors and sponsors, resulted in the construction of a new temple in June 2005. An Important Event The history of Iowa as the heart that provides diversity and cultural heritage. Thus began a peaceful journey of HTCC and since then has been part of the life of all Hindus and people of other religions with colorful festivals and events celebrated with devotion and reverence.
