Salem Chapel, on Picton Street, the main thoroughfare through Nantyffyllon, is the second chapel built by its congregation. Designed by Briton Ferry architect, Henry Morgan Thomas, upon its opening in 1873 it was one of the finest and largest chapels in Wales, with seating for over 1100 people. It was described as a most costly and magnificent edifice. 

It has a light and airy interior, with sinuous cast iron gallery balustrading and an attractive painted ceiling. 

The chapel is in the care of Addoldai Cymru, the Welsh Religious Buildings Trust, and the ground floor beneath the chapel houses the charity's office.

For Open Doors, the chapel will be open, with trustees present to show visitors around between 11am - 3pm.

No booking required.

Address - Picton Street, Nantyffyllon, Maesteg, Bridgend, CF34 0HH.

The chapel is situated on the main thoroughfare through the village and is easily visible from the road.
Parking on the main road can be difficult. However, there are several side streets within close walking distance where cars can be parked without issue.
There are two low steps leading up to the main entrance.
