Denomination Roman Catholic Church

The St. Vincent de Paul Chapel[1][2] (Hebrew: מנזר סן ונסן דה פול) It is a Catholic chapel that serves the Hospice of St. Vincent de Paul in Jerusalem.[3][4] is dedicated to the founder of the Daughters of Charity who also run a hospital and an adjoining nursery. This is one of the largest Catholic churches in the city. The sisters are present in the Holy Land since 1884.

The chapel was built in the Romanesque Revival style. The nave is delimited by Neo-Romanesque pillars from the side aisles.

A modern tall building, whose construction was only recently allowed by the Israeli authorities now partially blocks the view of the two Christian buildings, the hospice and chapel.
