Luce Memorial Chapel
Luce Memorial Chapel, Modern chapel in Xitun District, Taiwan
Luce Memorial Chapel is a modern place of worship at Tunghai University featuring reinforced concrete walls topped with a Chinese glazed tile roof. The structure measures approximately 20 meters in length and 30 meters in width, with capacity for around 400 people during gatherings.
The chapel was completed in 1963 through a collaboration between renowned architects Ieoh Ming Pei and Chen Chi-kwan. Since its opening, it has become a recognized country-level monument on the university campus.
The chapel serves as a gathering place for Christian worship and remembrance among university members and visitors from the surrounding area. People come here to participate in services and find a space for reflection.
The chapel is fully wheelchair accessible, allowing all visitors to move freely through its spaces. Plan your visit around regular service times and events, as these provide the best opportunity to experience the interior in its intended use.
The interior is flooded with changing light through strategically placed windows that shift across the concrete surfaces throughout the day. This interplay of light creates a constantly evolving visual experience that transforms the space with the passing hours.
