Chapel of the Holy Cross, Catholic chapel in Sedona, United States.
The Chapel of the Holy Cross emerges directly from red rock formations, featuring a 90-foot iron cross on its southwestern wall.
Local rancher and sculptor Marguerite Brunswig Staude commissioned the chapel in 1954, completing construction in 1956 for 300,000 dollars.
The American Institute of Architects recognized the chapel with an Award of Honor in 1957 for its integration with natural surroundings.
Visitors reach the chapel through a curved concrete ramp that leads to an interior space accommodating 150 people.
The construction process moved 25 tons of rock without using dynamite to preserve the natural rock formations.
