Yiwan Chapel - Taiwan Presbyterian Chapel

Attractions along Antong Traversing Historic Trail

The Taiwan Presbyterian Church was introduced to the Yiwan hamlet in 1950. Zhu Lanmei and others were converted from other religions. At that time, preacher Chen Zhifeng and Pastor Lin Chuanming also assisted the church in evangelizing. Due to the increasing number of believers, the believers built the chapel and completed construction in June 1953. In June 1974, the original church was destroyed by a typhoon. Designed by Lai Mingde, a member of the clan, the believers worked together to build a new church. The front of the church was built in the form of a small European country chapel. The white exterior wall is the main visual base, and the roof has the style of Gothic architecture. And there are cross and angel carvings on the tip of the roof and on both sides of the gate. Its shape is like a small European church as seen on Christmas cards, so it is called a “geeting card church”. In 2003, it was designated as a "Historic Building" by the Taitung County Government.
