Some of the most beautiful architecture pieces are religious places of worship. Such is the case with the Alice Millar Chapel at Northwestern University.

Millar Chapel is interdenominational, serving a variety of faiths in the college community. Completed in 1962, the building stands 151 feet (46 m) at its highest point and was a gift to the school from Foster G. McGaw, a University trustee, and his wife. The chapel was named after McGaw’s mother and contains 720 seats and a 100-rank Aeolian Skinner organ.
