About this place
Thorncrown Chapel is a stunning glass‑and‑timber chapel tucked deep in the Ozark woods just outside Eureka Springs. Built with 425 windows and soaring wooden beams, the entire structure blends seamlessly into the forest, creating a peaceful, almost surreal atmosphere. Visitors describe it as quiet, serene, and beautifully lit, with the surrounding trees forming a natural cathedral around the building.
The chapel is free to visit, with plenty of easy parking and a short walk from the lot to the entrance. Inside, the space feels open and calming — perfect for reflection, photography, or simply taking in the architecture. It’s also a popular wedding and worship location thanks to its unique design and tranquil setting.
A must‑see stop for any rider passing through Eureka Springs, especially if you’re already running Hwy 62. The combination of forest scenery, dramatic architecture, and easy access makes Thorncrown one of the most memorable landmarks in the Ozarks.
