The Zion Chapter House is a historic building located at 2715 Emmaus Avenue in Zion, Illinois. The building was constructed between 1909 and 1910 as a meetinghouse for Zion's chapter of the American Woman's League.

The Zion Chapter House is an example of a Class II building, which was designed for clubs with 60 to 100
