Chapel on the Rock, Catholic chapel in Allenspark, Colorado.
The Saint Catherine of Siena Chapel stands on a massive rock formation near Rocky Mountain National Park at 40.2469°N and 105.536°W.
Monsignor Joseph Bosetti discovered the site in 1916 and spent twenty years gathering funds before the chapel construction was completed in 1936.
The chapel contains statues carved in Bolzano, Italy, and stained glass windows manufactured by Franz Mayer & Company from Munich, Germany.
Visitors can access the chapel daily from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with Catholic mass services held every Friday morning at 8:30.
The structure withstood both a devastating fire in 2011 and severe flooding in 2013 while the surrounding retreat center suffered extensive damage.
