Stained Glass Windows

St. Peter's Chapel at the Mare Island Naval Shipyard was built in 1901 under the guidance of Chaplin McAllister and is the oldest chapel in the military. The organ was installed in 1929 and updated again in 1966.

 

The twenty-nine stained glass windows were installed over a thirty year period to honor individuals and groups. Twenty-five of the windows are known to be from the Tiffany Studios, one by the Cummings Studios, and this triptych from Ingerson and Glaser of San Francisco.

 

The chapel is maintained by the Mare Island Historic Park Foundation
