Mare Island Museum
The Mare Island Museum is temporarily closed. Tours of Mare Island are still available by appointment.
Mare Island Naval Shipyard (MINSY) is located in Vallejo, California. For over 142 years, our country’s defense depended on Mare Island Navy Yard and over 100 organizations which were in operation here over the years.
The goal of the Mare Island Historic Park Foundation is to preserve as much of the history and character of the shipyard as possible, and make it available to the public. Our educational and museum projects represent many of the activities of the shipyard in a meaningful and living way, so visitors from all over the world can see the end product of the labors of the thousands of men and women who worked here.
St. Peter’s Chapel
Built in 1901 under the guidance of Chaplain Adam McAlister, it’s the oldest naval chapel in the United States. A classic example of Victorian Gothic architecture with its tidy brown shingles, cream-colored trim, steep pitched roof and soaring octagonal spire, it has charm and history inside and out.
The Chapel is available for weddings, memorials, funerals, baptisms and other events.
