Mission Dolores, formally Mission San Francisco de Asís, was founded by Spanish Franciscan missionaries in 1776. Its whitewashed adobe chapel, completed in 1791 largely by Ohlone labour, is the oldest intact building in San Francisco. Beside it stand the Mission Dolores Basilica of 1918 and a cemetery with graves of the city's early settlers.

Grace Cathedral is the Episcopal cathedral of the Diocese of California on Nob Hill, a Gothic Revival church in reinforced concrete designed by Lewis Hobart and built from 1927 to 1964. Inside and outside are labyrinths for walking, and its east doors are gilded replicas of Ghiberti's Gates of Paradise in Florence.
