Massassi Temple

The Massassi Temple was built on Yavin 4 by the Massassi to worship Naga Sadow, a Sith Lord who had enslaved and mutated the Massassi using Sith Alchemy.

The Massassi continued to worship their god at the Temple even after he entered a state of hibernation inside a sarcophagus. They cotninued to worship there for over a thousand years (long after their god's presumed death at the hands of Freedon Nadd) until Exar Kun eliminated the species.

Kun allowed the Massassi warrior Kalgrath to remain behind, however, guarding the Temple in a state of hibernation. During the Galactic Civil War, the Alliance to Restore the Republic used the Temple as a base during the Battle of Yavin. Later, Luke Skywalker established his Jedi Praxeum in the Temple.
