Saints Peter and Paul Church, San Francisco, Catholic church in North Beach, San Francisco, United States.

Saints Peter and Paul Church is a Catholic house of worship in the North Beach neighborhood of San Francisco dating from the early 1920s. Two slender bell towers flank the main facade and each carries a cross at the top, while the entrance area consists of three large arches with carefully carved stone ornaments.

After the 1906 earthquake severely damaged the first church building from 1884, reconstruction did not begin until 1922. The new structure with its style reminiscent of Romanesque cathedrals was dedicated two years later and has since stood at the heart of the Italian neighborhood.

The church has served as the home church and cultural centre of San Francisco's Italian-American community since its consecration, and is called "la cattedrale italiana dell'Ovest", the Italian Cathedral of the West, a colloquial rather than official title. Masses are offered weekly in English, Italian and Cantonese, the Cantonese services serving the city's Chinese-American Catholics. The Italian inscription over the portal, quoted in Wendell Berry's 1988 novella Remembering, gives the opening lines of Dante's Paradiso.

Washington Square sits directly in front of the entrance and offers a quiet spot to view the facade before or after a visit. Masses are held on multiple weekdays, with Sundays being especially well attended.

The inscription over the portal is in Italian, not Latin: it quotes the opening lines of Dante's Paradiso. Joe DiMaggio married Dorothy Arnold here on November 19, 1939; because that marriage was never annulled, he could not remarry in a Catholic church. A side door displays a photo of DiMaggio on his wedding day with Arnold, not with Marilyn Monroe.
