Chapel of Memories

The Chapel of Memories is a small wooden Catholic church built in 1917 that has had two lives: first as St. Catherine's, the parish church for Temecula's pioneer families, and now as a popular wedding venue. The building is plain and white, with a single steeple — quintessential Southern California vernacular.

It is worth a look as you pass through. The grounds are usually open during the day; check the schedule if you want to peek inside.

A story
Originally St. Catherine's Catholic Church, built in 1917, the chapel was moved across town in pieces and reassembled when its lot was redeveloped. Couples now book the building two years out for weekends.
