The current chapel is said to have been built in 1895 as the first church building in Karuizawa. It was expanded and renovated to its present form by 1922.
The Shaw House Memorial Museum is said to be a villa built in Karuizawa in 1888 by Alexander Croft Shaw, a Canadian-born Anglican missionary who first visited Karuizawa in 1886.
Since they are located on the same premises, it is recommended to visit both together.
