Willard (Memorial Chapel) #AtoZChallenge

The Willard Memorial Chapel, located in Auburn, New York (Finger Lakes region), is the only existing building in its original location with an original, unaltered, interior designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany of the  Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company. (The jewelry company with the Tiffany name was founded by his father.)  It was built between 1892 and 1894.

It, and an adjoining building, are the only two buildings left from a theological seminary.

Here is the exterior of the building.  Now, let's go in.

When many of us think of Tiffany, we think of stained glass.  So let's look at some stained glass.

There's stained glass and chandeliers, too.

A better view. 

Another view.

You don't think of floors but this floor was Tiffany designed.

Let's look at the pews.

And some woodwork.

Bonus picture - grave of Louis Comfort Tiffany, buried in Green-Wood cemetery in Brooklyn, New York.

Auburn, New York has a number of properties on the historic register, including the Harriet Tubman complex and the William H. Seward House (the man responsible for our purchase of Alaska and Secretary of State under Lincoln and Andrew Johnson.)  The area is well worth your visit.
