Chapel of San Ramon

Chapel of San Ramon, Religious chapel in Santa Maria, Santa Barbara County, United States.

The Chapel of San Ramon is a place of worship in Santa Maria distinguished by a white wooden structure with two steeples and crosses positioned along Foxen Canyon Road. The building features a simple yet recognizable design that blends into the rural landscape of the region.

Frederick and Ramona Foxen Wickenden built the chapel in 1875, marking a shift in local architecture away from older mission structures. The construction symbolized the growing influence of American settlers on the religious infrastructure of the Santa Maria Valley.

The chapel honors San Ramon, a saint revered in the local community, and its white wooden structure with two steeples serves as a recognizable landmark along Foxen Canyon Road. The building reflects how early settlers expressed their faith through new architectural forms that departed from older mission traditions.

The chapel is accessed via Foxen Canyon Road in Santa Maria, where adequate parking space is available. Services are held weekly through St. Louis de Montfort Church, so visitors should check opening times beforehand if planning a visit outside of service hours.

The chapel's redwood clapboard siding is a New England building form, not a mission one; it was designed by Father J.B. McNally of the Diocesan Seminary of Our Lady of Guadalupe at Santa Ynez. The first burial in the adjoining cemetery, in 1876, was Benjamin Foxen, father of Ramona Wickenden and Thomas Foxen.
