The Loretto Chapel has a "Miraculous Staircase" to the chapel's choir loft has two 360-degree turns and no visible means of support. An anonymous carpenter is said to have fashioned the spiral stairs in 1878 using only wooden pegs. Legend suggest that St. Joseph, the patron saint of carpenters, inspired the work. The Chapel was beautiful. There are even rosaries hanging on the tree outside and neat metal wind pieces of art that blow in the wind. Inside the chapel, there is a model of the chapel. I took a picture of the model staircase looking down.
