The Hermitage of San Antonio de Padua de la Tuna (Spanish: Ermita de San Antonio de Padua de la Tuna) near Isabela, Puerto Rico dates from 1730. It comprises the ruins of a village church that was abandoned in the early 19th century when the community, with the permission of Governor Salvador Meléndez, moved to a more favorable location nearer the coast, which became the town of Isabela, founded in 1819.^[2]^[3]

The hermitage was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1983.^[4]
