Historical archaeologist Henry Miller says that the reconstructed 1667 Brick Chapel in Historic St. Mary’s City, Maryland “is a small building in a small part of the world.”
But in a talk on April 12, 2025, he added “that building contains a huge story of state, national and international significance.”
A major milestone for the Brick Chapel – a landmark of faith that symbolizes Maryland’s status as a birthplace of religious freedom in the United States – unfolded that day, as the chapel’s interior features were unveiled, culminating more than four decades of historical research, archaeological excavation and painstaking reconstruction work.
