Facts and practical information

The Los Candelarias Chapel, also known as the San Antonio Chapel, is a historic building in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The chapel was built in 1888 to serve the community of Los Candelarias, one of several outlying plazas spread along the Rio Grande in the vicinity of the main plaza at Old Town Albuquerque. It is one of the only surviving buildings from the no-longer-extant plaza. The building remained in use as a chapel until the 1950s and was subsequently converted into an artist's studio and then a private residence. It was listed on the New Mexico State Register of Cultural Properties in 1983 and the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. ()
