Built in 1931 by the U.S. Army, the Presidio Chapel's Spanish mission revival architecture features a clean white décor, dramatic high ceilings with redwood beams, wrought-iron chandeliers, and distinguished oak doors. The historic arched stained-glass windows by Willemina Ogterop, and magnificent fresco by Victor Arnautoff add stunning color.

The Mural Room, perfect for an intimate reception, is adjacent to the sanctuary and views the hillside. Outdoors, a beautiful garden lined with flowers, grass, and trees, is the perfect place for gathering with friends, family, and colleagues.

As you walk out the door of the chapel, you have San Francisco Bay (and a direct view of Alcatraz) immediately below you, woods all around you, plus the Golden Gate Bridge peeking through some trees on your left. In the middle of the most densely populated city west of New York, you feel like you're away from it all. And it even has parking!

Seriously amazing location and beautiful, small chapel situated on a hill with a glimpse of the Golden Gate Bridge and a grand view of the San Francisco bay! We had a small cocktail reception in the garden on the side. It was absolutely lovely!

After a quick afternoon in Chinatown, we headed back to Queen Anne to get ready for a wedding at the Presidio Chapel. This was a short bus ride and along the way we got views of the Golden Gate Bridge. It was neat to drive through the park to the old military compound where the chapel is located. This is a very simple but elegant church made of stucco and exposed wood beams. A high ceiling and warm lighting add the finishing touches.

Beautiful little church with surprisingly affordable rentals in a billion-dollar setting. Schedule fills up fast, but it is one of the true hidden gems of San Francisco... or as close to San Francisco as you can get without really being in San Francisco. Tons of parking, and five minutes from Golden Gate pictures.

I've been to the Presidio's Main Chapel for a friend's wedding (her father was a Vet so she was keen on the having it in the Presidio b/c of its history as a former Army base). The facility is clean and intimate, and the staff is warm and professional. The setting is in the Presidio which I find so beautiful and calming. The Golden Gate Bridge is in the backdrop as well.
