1212. The Chapel of the Holy Cross

This famous chapel is ensconced amidst a backdrop of huge red rocks so typical of this part of the state. It was created by one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s students, Marguerite Brunswig Staude, in 1956. Staude wanted to build something that would be a tribute to the Catholic Church.

She saw the scarlet rocks and knew this was the ideal location. The best time to visit is when the sun’s rays hit the stained-glass windows. You don’t need to be a Christian to be impressed by this place.
