St. Isidore Historical Plaza in Los Alamitos, CA

St. Isidore Historical Plaza, a charming historic site in Los Alamitos, CA, was originally established in 1921 as St. Isidore Catholic Church. Over the years, it has transformed from a place of worship into a vibrant community hub that celebrates the area's rich heritage. Today, it’s a popular venue for weddings, birthday parties, memorials, and other special events.

It boasts several designations:

Oldest public building in the city
National Register of Historic Places

One of the chapel's most notable features is its stained glass windows. However, the building’s proximity to Katella Avenue has led to significant structural damage due to vibrations from heavy traffic.

Efforts are currently underway to raise funds for the restoration of these windows and other critical preservation projects.
