University of Maryland Memorial Chapel

University of Maryland Memorial Chapel Memorial Chapel is steeped in history and honor--and host to thousands of events each year! https://linktr.ee/umdchapel

The University of Maryland Memorial Chapel is a gleaming treasure that mingles rich historic tradition with modern relevance. Dedicated in 1952 in memory of University veterans, it remains a symbol of honor and distinction to this very day. The Chapel is located right off of Route 1 (Baltimore Avenue) on the University of Maryland, College Park campus. It is host to thousands of events each year, including religious services, concerts, student group events, weddings, lectures, interfaith programs, and meetings. In 2010, the Garden of Reflection and Remembrance was created to provide members of the community a place for contemplation. The Garden contains water features, journals, and a labyrinth, all designed to encourage relaxation and repose. Special programming also occurs throughout the year, including guided meditation and candlelit labyrinth walks.

Mental Health Awareness Week is a reminder that we don’t have to navigate everything alone. Sometimes, taking care of ourselves can simply mean making space to connect, reflect, or be present with others. 💙

This week, we’re holding that space through Circles of Connection on 10/1 at 12 PM and Late Night at the Labyrinth on 10/2 at 8:30 PM.

Think you know Memorial Chapel? There’s a whole garden of stories just outside. 👀✨

The first wedding recorded in the Chapel’s wedding registers was Albert E. Statt and Helen Ann Bump on November 27, 1952.
