Nestled in a pristine valley in the Catoctin mountains, Eyler's Valley Chapel offers a unique and wonderful worship experience. Located 6 miles from Thurmont, MD between Frederick MD and Gettysburg, PA, the chapel allows visitors to step back in time. Built in 1857, the chapel has no electricity: 72 candles glow with light, the treadle organ provides music, and the church bell placed in December of 1904 rings out the start of each service. Other than replacing the old coal stove with two gas heaters and keeping things cleaned up and painted, the chapel remains pretty much as it was a hundred plus years ago.
We welcome you to join us for worship any Sunday evening at 7pm. In the winter services may be cancelled due to inclement weather.
