Description: Entrance to the Sts. Sergius and Herman of Valaam Chapel, a Russian Orthodox chapel on Spruce Island in the Kodiak Island Borough of the U.S. state of Alaska, near the city of Ouzinkie. It is a site of pilgrimage due to its connection with St. Herman, the patron saint of the Orthodox Church in America: dedicated to him, it is the location of his grave. Built in 1930, the chapel was added to the National Register of Historic Places on 6 June 1980.
