St. Paulus Lutheran Church was a historic church at 999 Eddy Street in San Francisco, California. The church was built from 1892 to 1894 next to Jefferson Square and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. The church was destroyed by fire on November 5, 1995 and never rebuilt.[2]

The site is now a community garden. On October 7, 2014, the SF real estate website Socketsite announced the church had put the site up for sale.[3]

On October 5, 1980, the church became San Francisco Landmark number 116. The church's landmark status was rescinded after the 1995 fire.

The church is seen in the background of a few shots in the Alfred Hitchcock film Vertigo (1958) with James Stewart and Kim Novak.
