Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church, also known as Confederate Memorial Chapel and as the Sacred Heart Catholic Church, is a Gothic Revival style Christian church in Port Gibson, Mississippi.
The church was built in 1868 in the town of Rodney, Mississippi.
In 1983, the Rodney Foundation donated the building to the state, which moved it to Grand Gulf Military State Park in Port Gibson, Mississippi. Once in the park, the church was restored to its original condition and is now used as a non-denominational chapel.[2]
It was declared a Mississippi Landmark in 1985[1] and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[3]
