--

Originally constructed by the Jesuits in the 1660s, the Brick Chapel at St. Mary’s City stood for nearly 40 years before the structure was dismantled. Archaeologists uncovered the building’s original foundation, which facilitated its faithful reconstruction over a period of several years. While the physical reconstruction of the edifice was completed some time ago, a significant new milestone has been achieved: the installation of the interior exhibits. The team at Historic St. Mary’s City has diligently researched the probable appearance of the interior in the 17th century.

This lecture will detail the research and effort invested in the new exhibit, which reached completion in September 2025. Archaeological evidence, combined with rigorous historical research, informed the decisions made to accurately understand and interpret the Chapel’s interior. Numerous details of the interior finishes will be presented, including information regarding the altar, the tabernacle, 17th-century lead coffins, and the original brick foundation
