Description
The Chapel on the Rock was built on a rock at the base of Mount Meeker in Allenspark, Colorado, near Estes Park. This Catholic church is also known as Saint Catherine of Siena Chapel. It is located on the grounds of the Saint Malo Retreat and is a tourist landmark.
In 1916, Monsignor Joseph Bosetti came across a large rock formation just east of Rocky Mountain National Park and inspired by the Biblical phrase "upon this rock I will build my church", he envisioned a church built on the rock. Construction was completed in 1936.
