The Chateau at Oregon Caves National Monument.  Considered one of the National Park System's classic Great Lodges, and a National Historic Landmark, the Chateau was completed in 1934. The Chateau is a six-story structure with a reinforced concrete foundation and a superstructure of wood frame construction with enormous post and beam interior supports. The building spans a small gorge and a great deal of the building's mass is banked into that depression.  Exterior walls are shiplap siding sheathed with cedar bark, giving the building a shaggy, rustic appearance
