Faith Chapel, National Historic Place Chapel in Jekyll Island, Georgia, US
Faith Chapel is a place of worship on Jekyll Island featuring Gothic Revival style with wooden shingles made from cypress and decorative gargoyles. The building displays intricate architectural details both inside and outside that give it a distinctive character.
The building was constructed to replace an older chapel and served the island club members as their religious center. Georgia acquired the island and this building in 1942, and it was registered as a historic site in 1970.
The chapel served members of the Jekyll Island Club from different religions as a shared place of worship. It created a space where various faith communities could gather and hold their services together.
The site is maintained by a local authority that offers guided tours to visitors interested in learning more about the building. It helps to check opening times beforehand since access may vary with the seasons.
A stained glass window inside was designed by the renowned artist Louis Comfort Tiffany and depicts a biblical scene. This window was installed in 1921 and remains one of the artistic highlights of the place.
