Futuna Chapel is a building in Wellington, New Zealand designed by the architect John Scott.
Built by the brothers of the Society of Mary, the chapel is named after the Pacific Island of Futuna on which the missionary Peter Chanel, to whom the project is dedicated, was martyred in 1841.[1] It was awarded the New Zealand Institute of Architects gold medal in 1968[2] and its 25-year Award in 1986.[3] The Historic Places Trust has placed it on its register as a Category 1 Historic Site.[4]
