Thorncrown Chapel - Eureka Springs, Arkansas


Thorncrown Chapel, the beautifully constructed structure that you see here, is one of the most awe-inspiring landmarks in Eureka Springs, Arkansas.
Designed by the noted architect E. Fay Jones, who passed away in 2004, the chapel was named one of the top five buildings of the 20th century by the American Institute of Architects.
The chapel includes more than 6,000 square feet of glass and was designed and constructed to blend with its spectacular mountain setting.
