[37 - 37] Pier # 45-B
San Francisco, CA 94133

The Fishermen's & Seamen's Memorial Chapel, located at Pier 45 in San Francisco, serves as a historic landmark dedicated to the memory of those who have lost their lives at sea. It is home to St. John's Oratory, which has been offering the only fully traditional Pre-Vatican II Roman Catholic Latin Mass and Divine Office with Gregorian chant in the Bay Area since 1992.

Operated by the Society of St. John the Apostle, the chapel provides a unique spiritual experience, emphasizing the preservation of traditional Catholic rites and practices. In addition to regular services, the Oratory also promotes Gregorian chant through the St. John Schola, welcoming amateur singers to participate in its musical offerings.

We got married here in 2008. Perfect place for a small ceremony of 50ish people. Lovely views while you say your vows. A truly hidden gem in the city.
