  • Mission Espada
    Mission Espada is the oldest of San Antonio’s five Spanish colonial missions, founded in 1690 and relocated to its current site in 1731. Known for its charming, rustic architecture and peaceful setting, Espada was a hub for teaching trades like blacksmithing and weaving to Indigenous converts. Its original aqueduct system, part of an impressive irrigation network, still stands as a testament to Spanish engineering.
  • Mission San Juan
    Mission San Juan, established in 1731, is known for its serene, park-like setting and simple white chapel. Originally intended as a self-sustaining community, it included farmland, living quarters, and workshops. Mission San Juan played a key role in agriculture, producing crops and goods that supported the region. Today, visitors can explore its peaceful grounds and learn about the daily life of the Indigenous people and missionaries who lived there.
  • Mission San Jose
    Mission San José, known as the Queen of the Missions, is the largest and most stunning of San Antonio’s Spanish colonial sites. Founded in 1720, it features a beautifully carved stone church, the famous Rose Window, and original walls that once sheltered hundreds of Indigenous residents. With its rich history, restored buildings, and vibrant grounds, it offers an unforgettable glimpse into early Texas life.
  • A community space celebrating the UNESCO-listed San Antonio Missions, with exhibits and stories that connect the missions to the surrounding neighborhoods, culture, and history.
  • Mission Concepcion
    Mission Concepción is the best-preserved Spanish colonial church in the U.S., with original frescoes still visible after nearly 300 years. Completed in 1755, its striking twin towers and rich history make it a must-see on the San Antonio Mission Trail. This active parish offers visitors a glimpse into the vibrant culture and faith that shaped early Texas.
  • Alamo Plaza is home to the historic Alamo, site of the 1836 Battle of the Alamo and one of Texas’s most significant landmarks, surrounded by a vibrant public square rich in culture and history. (pass by)
