About this postcard

A color view of Salem Memorial Chapel in Lebanon, Pennsylvania, a Romanesque stone church with a steep gabled roof, arched stained-glass windows, a cross finial, and a tall brick chimney. Steps lead to the arched entrance porch, and a lawn with trees frames the building on either side. The chapel's arched windows and stone construction reflect Romanesque Revival church design common in early-20th-century Pennsylvania.
