Hidden Treasure

Oakland Cemetery Chapel

Most St. Paulites can not identify this chapel. It is on the grounds of Oakland Cemetery.  The cemetery was started in 1853. This chapel is a replacement of the original and was built in 1924.  It isn't the oldest or biggest church in St. Paul by a long shot but it is beautiful especially in the fall.  For the photographers out there I have to say Oakland is a great place for photography. There are huge oak trees everywhere and some wonderful tombstones and vaults.
