Thorncrown Chapel

Do NOT miss this! Even an atheist would have to leave feeling peaceful and touched! definitely go during one of the services, it is memorable. The same lady has been singing there for years and she starts in the back of the room acapella and you think it must be recorded because it sounds so angelic but as she walks to the front you will discover it is her! It blows my mind how clear the glass is it is just like sitting in the forest but with air conditioning. so so stunning!

This was worth going out of our way to see! It is beautiful!

Honestly underwhelming. The structure outside is gorgeous but you aren’t allow to explore around the building at all. The decor in the interior is outdated and garish and completely takes away from the view and the architecture. They also play really cheesy pops classical music, which was really terrible. It was advertised that we would be sitting in silence, even on the paper we were given at the door, and it was anything but. We wondered when Kenny G. would start playing on the radio.

Acoustics in the building are dimmed by the gaudy fabric used for the pews which is very unfortunate.

Could be gorgeous.

Beautiful and peaceful. It is a unique building and worth a visit if you are in the area. The walk up to the chapel is just as wonderful and the chapel itself. You walk on a paved path up to the church. It is shaded by many large trees and in the hot summer the shade feels refreshing. It's free to visit. You can also make a donation if you wish.

Absolutely beautiful. We went to a Sunday morning service. Tourist are welcomed, as it is basically a tourist church without a regular congregation.

My wife and I visited the chapel in June 2014. It is a very beautiful and inspiring place!

Gorgeous. Spent about 15 minutes here with my kids. They have a few items for purchase in the Chapel along with donation box.

We were very exited to see this on our way to Branson, however when we pulled in, the gate was closed for a private event.

So worth the stop. Beautiful and peaceful. No charge, just donations.
Don’t recommend driving to it with RV trailer due to windy and steep roads. We did it, but it wasn’t a pleasant experience.

This is a really special place. The brochure they give you is really excellent. Lays out the how it was built and why. Talks about the spiritual aspect and it beautiful.

Really special.
