Costello Chapel in Carrick-on-Shannon, Ireland, is one of the smallest chapels in the world. Built in 1879 by Edward Costello, the chapel was created as a memorial to his beloved wife, Mary Josephine, who passed away in 1877. Measuring just 16 feet by 12 feet, the chapel is a poignant symbol of eternal love and devotion. Both Edward and Mary Josephine are interred in the chapel, with their coffins encased in glass on either side of the altar.
