Thorncrown Chapel

Thorncrown Chapel "Built by famous architect Fay Jones in 1980 of a crisscrossing light wood frame, this exquisite chapel will lift your mind skyward!

This chapel in the Ozark woods is small (24 feet by 60 feet by 48 feet high) and is walled with glass. It rises from fieldstone floors and two low fieldstone walls. It is built almost entirely of standard-size lumber worked with the careful attention to detail of a master cabinetmaker.

Repeating diamond shapes loft upward to its overhanging peaked roof. It
has been compared to Frank Lloyd Wright's Wayfarers Chapel...."
