St. Mary's Chapel (1875) by eudora

St. Mary's Chapel (1875)

Originally La Chapelle de Sainte Marie de Fleuve, a Catholic Church in Union, Louisiana. My favorite story about its history is that after the Flood of 1927, it was rolled 250 feet back from the river.

A group has begun to restore this church, which was shuttered in 1998. One of their projects will be removing the vinyl siding; a storm started the job for them.

Oh, how pretty! So nice to know someone is going to try and restore it. I hope you get another picture of it after it’s restored. I love the way you have composed this one.

I am fascinated by these simple white churches.
