The Chapel of the Transfiguration is a small log chapel in Grand Teton National Park, in the community of Moose. The chapel was sited and built to frame a view of the Cathedral Group of peaks in a large window behind the altar. The chapel, which was built in 1925, is owned and operated by St. John's Episcopal Church in Jackson.[2]
The chapel was designed by C.B. Loomis in a rustic style. The T-shaped chapel has exposed log interior walls with stained glass windows on either side.[3] A combination gatehouse-belltower defines the entrance to the property, aligning visitors as they approach.[3]
