- "People who knew him best think he went looking for the first Jedi temple."
- ―Han Solo, on the whereabouts of Luke Skywalker
The first Jedi Temple, also known as the Ahch-To Jedi Temple,[3] was an ancient building established and maintained by the Jedi Order on Ahch-To. It was the first of many temples built throughout the galaxy, and one of the few that were not demolished by the Galactic Empire. Jedi Master Luke Skywalker came to live near the temple as a hermit after the destruction of his new generation of Jedi and his apprentice and nephew, Ben Solo's turn to the dark side of the Force.[2]

Notes and references[edit | edit source]
- ↑ Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary states that the first Jedi Temple was constructed on Ahch-To tens of thousands of years before the events of Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary places Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi in the same year as the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. Therefore, the first Jedi Temple was constructed tens of thousands of years before 34 ABY.
