St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church

This church is Spanish Baroque style infused with California-mission architecture. It has been a historic cultural monument since 1971. The parish celebrated its 125th anniversary in 2012 though it was in 1925 that the current church was built after the congregation outgrew its original church. The parish grew rapidly in the early 19th century due to the increase in people moving to Los Angeles. Today, the stately church welcomes people to one of its six Sunday masses - four of which are in Spanish. The church also is adjacent to its Parish School, which was started in 1911.
