A National Historic Landmark since 1997, Schoonmaker Reef is a unique remnant of millenia-old prehistoric life in North America. Believed to be 425 million years old, the reef's unassuming environs protect many a fossilized treasure. It was declared North America's first ancient reef in the 1860s. Originally operated as a quarry, the reef became a geological site after fossils were discovered here and found to date back as far as the Silurian period. Thousands of fossils unearthed here made their way to a number of different museums, including private collections.

This tiny French chapel was originally built in the 15th Century and moved stone-by-stone to the United States in 1927.

The chapel was officially dedicated to St. Joan of Arc on May 26, 1966 and today visitors make sure to stop by and appreciate this tiny gem.
