Sacred Stones

Future Construction of the Sacred Stones project

Picture
After six years of construction, the chapter house and its adjoining atrium are nearing completion.  During 2010 the first four of the six trans-vaulted ceiling units are being installed by the stone masons, and in 2011 the final two units will be completed as well as the floor of the chapter house.

During 2011 and 2012, the chapter house and atrium will be completed and the stones masons will accomplish the necessary finishing touches to make the chapter house complete.

After the chapter house and its atrium are complete, the abbey plans to construct an adjoining cloister walk and an archival museum.  With those structures completed and their accompanying landscaping, the abbey hopes to be able to build a new church that will complement the structures included in the Sacred Stones project.
