About Our Host, San Miguel Chapel

San Miguel Chapel has been owned by the nonprofit, private Saint Michael's High School and the Christian Brothers Educational Foundation since 1859. It has never been owned by the Santa Fe Archdiocese. Since the Chapel is sanctified and is not a business, there is no required entrance fee. Sole support for the constant and forever maintenance of this beloved 100% adobe (mud) structure has always come from local and worldwide community who want to preserve the chapel for another 400 years and for future generations.
