The last stop along the driving tour of Valley Forge, the chapel is probably overlooked by some. But it is and interesting place, especially the Justice Bell and 36-panel window.

Valley Forge National Historical Park is nationally significant as the location of the 1777-78 winter encampment of the Continental Army under General George Washington. Few places evoke the spirit of patriotism and independence, represent individual and collective sacrifice, or demonstrate the resolve, tenacity and determination of the people of the United States to be free as does Valley Forge. The historic landscapes, structures, objects, and archeological and natural resources at Valley Forge are tangible links to one of the most defining events in our nation’s history Here the Continental Army under Washington's leadership emerged as a cohesive and disciplined fighting force.

Reviewed By randalinh
We received a very informative tour by the museum curator, giving us a glimpse into the life of the privileged 18th century Potts family and their descendants. Interesting info about the iron industry in colonial times. Due to the pandemic, our tour was scheduled by phone, and limited to members of one household.

Someone told me about this intriguing place and my cousin and I had to visit. We never knew this place existed. Fascinating that there is a log house in this area that has been preserved with so much history. Our tour guide Kristi was so informative and explained all the history surrounding the log house that we cannot wait to come back again. The grounds are well kept and we enjoyed hearing the history of this log cabin.
