Unity Temple Restoration Foundation is one of the few prairie style churches in the country. Architectural great Frank Lloyd Wright, who was a member of the congregation, designed the building. The flat, cube-like building sits squat to the ground. Inside, the auditorium has excellent acoustics. Daily tours are offered, and a portion of the proceeds goes to ensure the future of this rare building.
