gffa: So, I was  yelling about this in a previous post, but TIME TO YELL ABOUT THE JEDI TEMPLE DIAGRAM.  This is from the Star Wars Locations rerelase from 2016, so it’s considered part of canon, but take it with some grains of salt, as a lot of the older reference books tend to not actually appear much in canon/were still working with Legends material that isn’t always part of canon.(Also, only what’s specifically said in this book is canon, not what Legends context they used to have.  The Jedi having an Agricultural Corp–which has never been mentioned in any canon book/comic yet, by the way–doesn’t mean that the Jedi Apprentice books’ context for how the AgripCorp worked are canon.  Remember:  Dooku: Jedi Lost had an Initiate who was sixteen and would still wait another year, so the age limit is not canon.  And given that the infirmary is staffed by the Medical Corps, it’s possible that these branches aren’t separate from the Jedi Order at all, but instead are now career paths within the Jedi Order.) “THE HEART AND HOME of the Jedi Order” HI THANKS I’M CRYING IMMEDIATELY UPON STARTING ON THIS “It is a place of spiritual growth” also got me right in the feelings place “Jedi scholars disagree on the location of the Order’s first temple, making cases for Coruscant, Jedha, and Ossus as well as worlds shrouded in myth, such as Tython and Ahch-To.“  First of all, I bet those discussions were NERDY AS HELL and second I love the reconfirmation that there are Jedi Scholars, that that seems to be their whole focus in life, just the study of the Force or of Jedi History or whatever else they chose. "Jedi archaelologists teach that the Temple is not a single structure but agglomeration of many structures–one that tells a millienia-long story of expansion oand appropriation, ruin and reconstruction.  The Temple is an archaelogical treasure it itself, bearing the scars of Sith occupation and a patchwork of ancient architecture adapted for different functions over time.  Some sublime examples of earlier construction have been preserved intact as museums to the heritage of the Jedi.” MAIN SPIRE: “Pinnacle room of the Temple Spire, the most sacred Jedi site, comprising the oldest known suriviving Jedi texts, is a carefully controlled environment."  "Hall of Knighthood.  Padawans are raised to the status of Jedi Knight here in a ceremony of deep spiritual significance.  The status of Master is also formally conferred here.” “Meditation chambers where Padawans awaiting Knighthood spend the night before the ceremony, communing with the Force.” "Memorial statues of most revered Jedi, surrounded in tower by repulsorlifts.” “Peak of the original sacred spire around which the earlieest incarnation of the Jedi Temple was constructed.” “Meditation blacony surrounding original peak.” “Lower balcony around peak presents a series of holo-depictions of the history of the Jedi.  The smallest younglings are brought here for their education.” “The sacred spire in its natural state, with ancient meditation balconies and access points to the original cave chapels.” “Chamber of Conclave, where representatives of the Jedi Order from across the galaxy meet once a year to hear reports from the Jedi Council.” RIGHT HAND SPIRE: “Meeting chamber generally used by Jedi High Council.“   "Holographic situation map of galaxy.” “Each Council Tower has a data and planning center linked to the Library and Archives.” “Hangar for Jedi starfighters with extendable launch/landing platform.” LEFT SIDE SPIRE: “Jedi Reassignment Council Tower houses Chamber of Judgement.”MAIN ZIGGURAT: “Mosaic floor salvaged from the ancient Jedi Temple of Ossus.” “Communications control for Jedi Council Tower, where Obi-Wan alters the Jedi recall signall to broadcast instead a warning.” “Clerestories allow light into contemplation gardens.” “Offices of the Jedi Exploration Corps.” “Lightsaber crafting facility, with lightsaber practice gallery behind.” “Workshops, storerooms, and maintenence facilities, as well as control and switch rooms.” “Reading room of earlier Jedi Library salvaged because of its architechtual merit.  Now converted to a formal banqueting hall for ceremonial/diplomatic occasions.” “Ancient remnant of earlier Temple has been preserved as museum of Jedi history.” “Jedi Archives and Library includes holocron vauls with ancient lore accessible only by Jedi Masters.” “Temporary accommodation cubilcles for Jedi Knights and Padawans in transit or awaiting re-assignment.” “Jedi Agricultural Corps research labratory, containing alien flora for research.” “Library and Archives data storage stacks, with Analysis Rooms behind.” “Area around base of Tower of First Knowledge devoted to the ongoing training and education of Padawans.” “Arcade of stained-glass windows and statues honoring Jedi heroes who were instrumental in wresting control of Coruscant from the Sith a millennium ago.” “The Room of 1,000 Fountains lies beyond this arcade.” “Salvaged remnants of earlier Temple, believed to be about 2,000 years old.” “Holographic training area used by Padawans and Knights, in which realistic battle scenarios can be generated for practice in lightsaber skills.” “Tablets with the Jedi Code and laws.” “Service ducts running throughout the Temple.” “Early rotunda chapek, retained within modern structure, reserved as a place of meditation for newly selected Padawans.” “Ancient exterior wall of the Temple precinct, now closed by later sheathing.” “Medical center and infirmary, staffed by Jedi Medical Corps.” “Sith containment cells, constructed centuries ago to hold hostile Force-users and their creatures and servants.” MAIN ENTRYWAY: “The Processional Way to the Jedi Temple terminates in this ceremonial staircase, crowned with the statues of two Warrior Masters and two Sage Masters.” “Formal entrance.  Massive pylons are decorated with sculptures of the Four Masters who founded the Temple.” “Monumental Temple entrace hall, where Yoda and Obi-Wan discover many of the Jedi dead after the attack on the Temple.” -- source link
