Saint Vincent de Paul, Historic church in Alabama, United States

Saint Vincent de Paul is a Gothic Revival church at 2191 Springhill Avenue in Mobile, Alabama, designed by local architect James H. Hutchisson. The brick building, completed in 1874 and dedicated on January 21, 1877, has a Ludowici clay tile roof first installed around 1918 and repaired with new tile from the same manufacturer after Hurricane Frederic.

A frame church completed in 1847 burned before the present building went up. Architect James H. Hutchisson designed the Gothic Revival replacement, built in 1874 and dedicated on January 21, 1877. On December 25, 1970 the parish merged with the neighboring Black parish, St. Peter Claver, founded in 1911, to form Prince of Peace; a new St. Vincent de Paul parish was then set up in Tillmans Corner. The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 24, 1992.

The parish was formed on December 25, 1970 by merging St. Vincent de Paul with the neighbouring Black parish of St. Peter Claver, established in 1911; the combined community took the name Prince of Peace. A new St. Vincent de Paul Parish was later set up in western Mobile County for the Tillmans Corner area.

The building holds the status of a registered historic place, which provides access to federal funding for its preservation and maintenance. Visitors should check in advance whether public tours or access are available, as opening times may vary.

The roof's Ludowici clay tiles were first fitted around 1918; after Hurricane Frederic damaged them, they were repaired with new tile from the same manufacturer. The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 24, 1992, as part of the Historic Roman Catholic Properties in Mobile submission.
