Wilshire Ward Chapel

The Wilshire Ward Chapel, formerly known as the Hollywood Stake Tabernacle, is a meetinghouse of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Los Angeles, California.

The building is listed as a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument and on the Mormon Historic Sites Foundation registry.

The Hollywood Stake Tabernacle was commissioned in late 1927 following the division of the Los Angeles Stake and designed by architects Hyrum Pope and Harold W. Burton in the Art Deco and early Modernist styles, with Moorish Revival elements.

[1] Due to its construction and design, the tabernacle was considered the “finest cement building in America” by Architectural Concrete in 1933.

The building remains in use as a meetinghouse by three Wards (Wilshire, Los Angeles Third (Spanish-speaking), Olympic (Korean-speaking)), but no longer functions as a LDS tabernacle.
