Daily Waypoint | N 44º 56′ 09.9″ W 93º 17′ 57.2″ Lakewood Memorial Chapel—The Memorial Chapel at Lakewood is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and serves as the architectural focal point of the cemetery. It was modeled after the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey. The chapel interior was created by New York designer Charles Lamb and many consider it the most perfect example of Byzantine mosaic art in the United States. Artists created more than 10 million mosaic pieces, called tessellae, from marble, colored stone, and glass fused with gold and silver. Upon its completion in 1910, the Lakewood Memorial Chapel was the only building in the country with an authentic mosaic interior. The chapel dome is 65 feet high and ringed with stained-glass windows that serve as a sundial telling the time of day and season. Four large mosaic figures representing Love, Hope, Faith, and Memory are situated on the side walls below the dome. Lakewood Cemetery is a large private, non-sectarian cemetery located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. https://www.fmgphoto.com/Lifestyle/Architecture/i-cFMzJvZ https://followingmygps.com/memorial-chapel-at-lakewood/ #Byzantine #mosaic #Chapel #lakewoodchapel #architecture #HistoricPlaces #mosaicart #historicbuilding #LakewoodMemorialChapel #MinneapolisMinnesota #lakewoodcemetery #americanarchitecture #discoveramerica #travelpics #travellife #travelinspiration #travelblog #travelphotography #fmgphoto #followingmygps #travelphotography #traveller #photography #travelamerica #lifestyle #LifeWellLived #travelmagazine #roadtripping #exploring #roadtrip (at Lakewood Cemetery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBA8LVFjAns/?igshid=1r1ng28sgmpza

History and Art trolly tour at Lakewood Cemetery in Minneapolis today. It ended up being a lovely day and I need to go back to see more of the things I didn’t get a chance to see. (Thanks to those who went today. @bonniedeotis and @everybodylikesliz amongst them) Photos information: 1-mosaic dome in the memorial chapel. 2- close up of the Fridley memorial. 3-tombstone for Holmes(Sherlock? 🕵️‍♂️ jk) and scenic view of many different type of stone markers. 4-lovely statue on top of the Rocheleau tombstone (45ft tall!). 5-Elk Rest statue and section for Elks members to be buried (common practice in the 1910s-1970s, to have a be buried with fraternal group or nationalities if prominent enough in the area).6-full photo of the Rocheleau monument. I am about as tall as the name printed on the base. #facts #lakewoodcemetery #needtogoagain #historynerd #fallfeeling #somuchhistory (at Lakewood Cemetery) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoXvSeZlPuQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=v0bim0xg6v2u

These are a few of the memorials from Lakewood Cemetery. I love the effort families put into decorating the graves of their loved ones. It's deeply moving.
