The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

Located in Riften, the Temple of Mara is a serene sanctuary dedicated to the goddess of love and compassion. Positioned between Black-Briar Manor and Riftweald Manor, the temple features a modest stone exterior with a courtyard leading up to its entrance. Inside, the main hall houses a statue of Mara flanked by planters containing lavender, dragon's tongue, and mountain flowers. The interior includes a worship area with wooden benches, an altar adorned with religious texts, and a Shrine of Mara that grants a blessing to those who pray. Additional rooms serve as living quarters for the temple's clergy and contain various books and personal items. Beneath the temple lies the Hall of the Dead, accessible via a staircase from the main hall. The temple serves as a place of worship, reflection, and community gathering within the city of Riften.
