Key Memorial Chapel, formerly the Roman Catholic parish church of Saint Philip the Apostle, is a historic Roman Catholic chapel located at 150 E. Sharpe Street in Statesville, Iredell County, North Carolina. It is considered within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Charlotte. It was built in 1898, and is a small one-story, two bay by four bay, Late Gothic Revival style brick building.
