😠 Beautiful, but despite the aesthetics clearly being derived from Spanish Catholicism, it is absolutely not the place for any serious Catholic to get married. Needs Salt and Holy Water ASAP.

Cant enter during reconstruction. Seems to be taken over by museum of man?

This is an unconsecrated sanctuary in Balboa Park. The interior is very simple but nice.

Beautiful old chapel where are beautiful friends got married and there is a little spot where the light comes in from the windows that makes you think you're omnipotent.

We got married here on July 4th. The perfect venue. So beautiful and Teri the coordinator was great!

Beautiful little chapel. Perfect for small weddings, less than fifty people. Currently there is remodeling going on in the area, so be sure to ask someone who works there if you can't find the place. The pedestrian detours can be confusing

Stunning chapel hidden in the heart of Balboa Park. Call the Museum of Man to get a showing. It's not generally open to the public, but if you call ahead, they will gladly schedule a showing for you.

Attended a beautiful wedding here. Small, cozy chapel. Perfect if you & your wedding guests are a group of fewer than 50 people.
