Children's Chapel

 

One of the side chapels at the National Cathedral is the Children's Chapel.  

Built in memory of a six year old boy by his family, the chapel, font, furniture and even the organ are all scaled to the size of a young child.

 

The kneelers all feature baby animals..

 

 

 

 

Many different animals are also depicted in the bronze gates to the chapel.

 

You have to look closely to identify each different creature..

 

 

Outside the Chapel the statue of the infant Jesus is obviously a focus for prayer..
