Björklunden, University campus in Baileys Harbor, United States.

The 441-acre northern campus of Lawrence University extends along Lake Michigan with woods, meadows, and a two-story lodge beside the water.

Donald and Winifred Boynton transferred their summer estate to Lawrence University in 1963, establishing an educational center for students and faculty members.

The Boynton Chapel contains 41 hand-painted frescoes and wood-carved furnishings that replicate the design of the Garmo stave church from Lillehammer, Norway.

The chapel opens for public visits on Mondays and Wednesdays from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM between mid-June and August, with entrance fees of 5 dollars.

The Door Shakespeare theatre company performs outdoor productions in the garden space, adding performing arts to the educational programs of the campus.
