St. Joan of Arc Chapel was erected in France around 1420 and shipped to the United States in the 1920s. Donated to Marquette University in 1964 by Lillian
and Marc Rojtman and dedicated in 1966, the chapel has drawn people of all backgrounds and faiths seeking solace
or a place for quiet prayer and reflection. Despite the immeasurable changes that have occurred outside its walls during
the past 600 years, St. Joan of Arc Chapel still serves the same purpose its builders
intended: to be a place of worship and celebration.
