Stone Chapel designed by Samuel Inman Cooper from Atlanta, under Martha Berry's supervision, featuring Gothic pointed arches in windows and entrances. Behind the forward facing eave of the main entrance is a tall, tapering pyramidal steeple. Students built the chapel from 1936-37. The chapel features a wood beamed ceiling, a floor of flagstone, leaded glass windows, a slate roof, and three stained glass windows depicting the life of Christ. The windows were donated by the Georgia State Society and the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, in memory of boys who died in World War II.
