The Gungan Temples represented substantial constructions that possessed particular significance for the Gungans. These structures served as repositories for revered staffs within the city of Otoh Jahai, dating back three millennia before the Battle of Yavin. Subsequently, following the liberation of Harte Secur during the Invasion of Naboo in 32 BBY, Boss Rugor Nass commissioned the construction of one to act as a central assembly point for the Gungan Grand Army. The construction of Gungan Temples demanded 3000 units each of ore, nova crystals, and carbon, and these temples were erected by Glurrgs.
The 2001 video game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds and its 2002 expansion pack feature Gungan Temples. Within the multiplayer mode, participants have the ability to erect monuments like this one, and securing its defense for 200 in-game "days" results in victory for the scenario. In the bonus mission of the Trade Federation campaign, which presents an alternative depiction of the Battle of Grassy Plains, the goal involves demolishing a Temple safeguarded by the Gungan Grand Army.
