Saint Teresa of Avila is a Roman Catholic church which was built in 1860 in the rural town of Bodega. The white wooden church was built from a redwood lumber and a lot donated from Jasper O’Farrell, for whom O’Farrell Street in San Francisco is named, donated the redwood lumber and a lot from his 1843 Mexican Land Grant, Rancho Estero Americano, to construct the church. Legend has the church built by New England shipbuilding carpenters in 1860. Upon completion the lot and church were deeded as a gift from John O'Farrell (Jasper’s brother) to Archbishop Alemany of San Francisco.
Saint Teresa of Avila is located next door to the Potter School, which was the setting for the schoolhouse scene in Alfred Hitchcock’s film “The Birds”. The church is a California State Historic Landmark.
