My LO templates spent years being in a subdirectory in the
~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/  structure but after an update (system or LO, I can't remember now) 
they all apparently disappeared. Hunting around, I found them in my home root directory  
~/Templates/

I don't recall ever having moved them there (but I cannot exclude it 100%) but it seems as good a 
place as any.
