West Point Chapel

The West Point Chapel just might be one of the most incredible buildings I’ve had the chance to explore. While I was a cadet at West Point for 2 years, I found the architecture extremely drab and somewhat depressing due to everything being built from the same gray stone. There was very little variation between the buildings, but the chapel, which was situated up the hill from the other buildings, had this castle-like appearance. While I didn’t go to any church services,  I did always appreciate being able to look up from the parade ground and see this beautiful structure. Also, fun fact, the organ is the largest all-pipe organ, in a religious structure, in the world.
