Chapel of the Holy Cross Sedona by pdulis

Chapel of the Holy Cross Sedona

Built on a twin-pinnacled spur about 250 feet high, jutting out of a thousand foot red rock wall, the construction was something of a miracle in itself. The chapel is a fine example of modern architecture, focusing all attention on a great window and cross behind the altar.
I have seen this...but NEVER more beautiful then this image. Really amazing...those "stars" (?) are fabulous!

@maggiemae - Thanks - The chapel was inspired and commissioned by local rancher and sculptor Marguerite Brunswig Staude, who had been inspired in 1932 by the newly constructed Empire State Building to build such a church - the Chapel belongs to the parish of St. John Vianney in Sedona and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Phoenix.
