The Temple of Justice is a large building of modern style which was constructed by an Italian firm in the 1960s on Capitol Hill in Monrovia, Liberia.[1] Dedicated in 1965,[2] it houses the Supreme Court of Liberia, auxiliary courtrooms, and legal offices. It suffered relatively little damage during the First and Second civil wars that lasted from 1989-2003, but poor maintenance and lack of electricity made the Temple unpleasant to work in.

A renovation project began in 2008; among its results was a change of the building's slogan to "LET JUSTICE BE DONE TO ALL" by removing the previous final word, "MEN".
