The report includes Part I: Developmental History and Part II: Treatment and Use. Part I includes a brief review of the history of Andersonville Prison and National Cemetery and the property’s transfer to the NPS as Andersonville National Historic Site, and a history of the Chapel’s construction and use. A chronology of the Chapel’s physical development and use describes the building’s original construction and appearance and explains how the building has changed over time. This information derives from historical documentation and physical investigation. A current physical description based on building investigations and assessment using non-destructive methods provides a systematic accounting of all features, materials, and spaces. A list of character-defining features and a summary assessment of the building’s current condition are also included. Part II provides recommendations for the treatment and use of the structure, including information on potential future effects of climate change on the historic resource.
