Technically a chapel but its really a cathedral . Very beautiful architecture and the choir was amazing!
If you're just visiting, be prepared to park a good ways away and walk.
Sitting atop the highest point on campus, this was the first building planned, but the last to be completed, when Duke moved from Trinity to Durham at the turn of the century. (From Aerial America) Read more
