'''Iron Temple''' is a [[Social|Social Space]] located atop [[Felwinter Peak]] in the [[Plaguelands]], overlooking the [[Cosmodrome]]. It is connected by a bridge to [[Vostok Observatory]]. Approximately four-hundred years ago, during the [[Dark Age]] and early [[City Age]], it was the stronghold of the [[Iron Lords]].

==History==
The Iron Temple was the place from which the Iron Lords once watched over [[Old Russia]] during the [[Dark Age]] and early [[City Age]].<ref>[http://www.ign.com/wikis/destiny/Felwinter_Peak IGN: Destiny Wiki - Felwinter Peak]</ref> Statues of eight of the fallen Iron Lords, erected to commemorate their sacrifice to contain the [[SIVA]] plague, can be found in the Temple's inner sanctum.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMJkMuw2SqI YouTube - Bungie: Rise of Iron Reveal Archive]</ref>

The Iron Temple was designed and built by Lord [[Silimar]] after the former [[Warlord]] [[Felwinter]] joined the Iron Lords and granted them use of Felwinter Peak for their headquarters. Over the years, hundreds of Iron Lords made it their home. With the Iron Lords' demise, Lord [[Saladin Forge]] sealed the Temple as a memorial to his friends and left it abandoned for some four-hundred years. During the [[SIVA Crisis]], the [[Fallen]] [[House of Devils]] attempted to plunder the Temple for information related to SIVA, but were thwarted by the [[Guardian]]. The Iron Temple is now home to a new generation of Iron Lords.

==Trivia==
*Felwinter Peak can be climbed by carefully jumping from certain rocks. At the end of the lengthy and perilous climb, there is a ledge with a lit campfire, a skeleton, some refuse, a moveable crate, and a Dormant SIVA Cluster.
*Using an [[Isenfyre Token]] at the Temple's central courtyard fire will allow the player to access Vostok Observatory across the bridge when the [[Iron Banner]] is not active.
*The bells within the Iron Temple can be rung in a certain order to unlock the "Sing the Iron Song" achievement. Successful completion requires multiple players working in coordination.
*As the ''[[Destiny 2]]'' [[Crucible]] map [[Vostok]] is directly based off of the Vostok Observatory space, the Iron Temple can be seen from the map.
*During the mission for Felwinter's Lie where you explore Vostok map while searching for clues, the Iron Temple area was accessible via sword-flying, with it being possible to make it to the very top of Felwinter Peak.
*The mountain from the top of the observation tower resembles a howling wolf's head from a certain angle.
