St Albert's Catholic Chaplaincy is the Roman Catholic chaplaincy for the University of Edinburgh. It started in 1931, when the Dominican Order moved into the house.

The original building is category A listed and the chapel, built in 2012, won an award for architectural excellence from the Royal Institute of British Architects.
