Saint Joseph Abbey, part 2


Saint Joseph Abbey has some interesting design touches. This fountain certainly resembles a custard cake. At bottom - the ceiling of a small, contemporary chapel. The history of the place is interesting too - when the original wooden monastery burned down in 1907, funding was provided by the Fabacher family (owners of New Orlean's Jackson Brewery) and Andrew Carnegie donated the steel.
