Chapel Hill is an unincorporated community in Polk Township, Monroe County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.
Chapel Hill was platted in 1856.[1] The community took its name from the Chapel Hill Methodist Church located there.[2] The community ultimately would fail to grow to its founders' expectations.[3] A post office was established at Chapel Hill in 1897, and remained in operation until it was discontinued in 1925.[4]
