After finishing my tour of Taliesin I decided to stop at the Unity Chapel to check it out. Located about a mile from Taliesin I found a small building just off of the road, the building itself if nice if unremarkable. It is interesting that the Chapel has a direct view of Taliesin about a mile away. Unfortunately the building was closed so I was unable to see the inside which Wright had a hand in designing at the very start of his career.
I did walk through the small cemetery at the side and back of the building which contains mainly the Lloyd family graves. Interestingly there is a marker for Frank Lloyd Wright even though his remains were disinterred in 1985 and taken to Taliesin West in Arizona. Also there is a marker for Mamah Cheney who was buried in the cemetery without a marker.
If you are interested in Frank Lloyd Wright and have read about his life Unity Chapel and the cemetery is certainly worth a visit; it is the kind of place that starts and ends Wrights career. read more
