Jeptha Wade Jr. had the Wade Chapel constructed in 1901 in memory of his famous grandfather. The Greek revival structure, designed by the architectural firm of Hubbell and Benes. The interior of the chapel was designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany and is one of the few Tiffany interiors still intact. Among the adornments is a Tiffany window (see inset in the picture above), entitled "The Journey of Life."

The Wade Chapel is open to the public daily from April 1 to November 19 from 9am to 4pm. The chapel is staffed with a guide and admission is free. There is off-set parking near the chapel.
