St. Mary's Church, School and Convent is a historic Roman Catholic church complex off United States Route 212 in Zell, South Dakota. It consists of four buildings and a cemetery, located on 7 acres (2.8 ha) just south of Zell in Hand County. All four buildings (a church, convent, and two rectory houses) are wood frame structures built between 1883 and 1910. The oldest building, the convent, was built in 1883, and is the mother site of the Benedictine Sisters in the state. The church was designed by Joseph Schwartz, one of the first architects to live and work in the state, and was built in 1905. Although the convent school was not initially successful, it gained traction and served the community until 1963.^[2]

The complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.^[1]
