Description:
This giant Gothic church is named for the University founder, John D. Rockefeller, who intended it to be the central and dominant feature of the University. It may not be that, but it is impressive, with a huge organ and the second largest carillon in the world. A great way to view the chapel and experience its acoustics is by showing up for one of the Wednesday lunchtime organ concerts.
