San Pedro Chapel is a historic adobe chapel in the Fort Lowell area of Tucson, Arizona, built in 1915 by Mexican and Sicilian immigrants who settled the area after the United States military abandoned Fort Lowell. It became the centre of a small settlement known as El Fuerte, serving as a cornerstone of community life alongside the Fort Lowell School House and the 1917 adobe Fort Lowell Union Church, which together with nearby small adobe houses formed the settlement's informal plaza. The chapel is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
