Wayfarers Chapel, nicknamed "The Glass Church," is a modern church building designed by Lloyd Wright on a bluff above the Pacific Ocean in Rancho Palos Verdes, California. Built in 1949 and affiliated with the Swedenborgian Church of North America, it serves as a memorial to the 18th-century scientist and theosopher Emanuel Swedenborg. It is a National Historic Landmark and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Extreme earth movement damaged the structure, and it was dismantled in 2024 and carefully stored.
