SEDONA. Designed by sculptor Marguerite Brunswig Staude, this awe-inspiring chapel – a contemporary expression of architecture and spirituality – rises between two red rock mounds just outside of Sedona. Conceived in 1932, the chapel wasn't completed until 1957 and is distinguished by a 90-foot cross. Ideal for a moment of meditation or views of the surrounding landscape, the chapel is a Sedona requisite. Interestingly enough, the interior once boasted a stylized crucifix called the "Christus" which attracted controversy due to its portrayed agony and was ultimately removed and destroyed.
