Union Church of Pocantico Hills

An official Path Through History Site! This stone church contains fine examples of modern stained-glass art commissioned as memorials by members of the Rockefeller family. Henri Matisse`s rose window, the artist`s last work, is dedicated to Abby Aldrich Rockefeller, a patron of modern art and a founder of the Museum of Modern Art. Marc Chagall`s "The Good Samaritan," was installed in the church`s nave as a memorial to John D. Rockefeller Jr. Chagall went on to design eight smaller windows within the sanctuary. The church still houses an active congregation.
