Our Lady of Good Voyage Church stands at 136-144 Prospect Street in Gloucester, Massachusetts, a Spanish Revival structure completed in 1915 by architect Halfdan M. Hanson. Built to replace an earlier church that burned in 1914, it was designed to serve Gloucester's large Portuguese immigrant fishing community and deliberately evokes the Santa Maria Madalena church in Madalena, Pico, in the Azores. The building is distinguished by one of the oldest complete carillon bell sets in the United States. Recognized for its architectural and cultural significance, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
