The green chapel is the supposed abode of the Green Knight, and the place to which Gawain is sent to keep his end of the bargain with the Green Knight. The green chapel, it turns out, is nothing more than a strange mound covered in grass, all part of Morgana le Fay's attempt to prove Gawain's cowardice with the challenge of the Green Knight.
