Chapel Setting
The beautiful combination of green, auburn, white and gray marble is the perfect setting for any wedding style. Stained glass windows, a high arched ceiling, and white wooden pews and furnishings complete this elegant setting.
History
Nazareth Hall was built in 1921. It was owned by the Minneapolis/St. Paul Archdiocese, and was a seminary preparing boys to enter the Roman Catholic priesthood. The chapel was constructed of materials from all over the world to show the universality of the church. The auburn Numidian marble walls are from the Pope’s quarry in Africa and were shipped in matching pairs. The white pillars from Italy were the third set of pillars shipped. The first set was cracked during shipment, and the second set was lost at sea. The stained glass windows portray 18 scenes from the Bible. The windows on the right depict eight Old Testament scenes and the windows on the left show ten New Testament scenes. Northwestern College purchased the property in 1970
