Rosicrucian Park, Part 2

Part 1 is back here.

The Akhnaton Shrine is located between the Administration building and the Francis Bacon Auditorium on the map, though it's not marked as such. The area is gated and closed to non-Rosicrucians, but it's a small open-air temple and the whole thing is visible from outside the gate. It looks nifty.

The Rosicrucian Library is another impressive and beautiful building. I filled up my camera with a great many images of it. There were also other things of interest in the park, and the Museum is another impressive piece of Egyptian revival architecture.

Now we come to the last of the Egyptian revival architecture (that I took pictures of). In addition to the museum exterior, there are some interesting trees planted around the park.

The Winchester Repeating Rifle, aka "The Gun that Won the West" was what made the Winchester fortune. It was an improvement on the Henry Rifle.
