99. Road church
A road church is a church or chapel located close to a major road or motorway and intended to provide travellers with a convenient place for prayer, reflection or a break during their journey. Some are purpose-built beside major roads, while others are existing churches located near an interchange or roadside route.
Road churches are especially associated with parts of Europe and may be indicated by tourist, service or local direction signs. Their designation, facilities and signage vary between countries.
