| Mission San Juan Capistrano is beautiful
and old and romantic. You can hear the tolling of its centuries old
bells and walk down its time worn paths. Its serenity and peace amid
lush gardens and cool fountains, cloistered by old adobe walls, offers
visitors seclusion from the sounds and sights of a busy world.
Mission San Juan Capistrano has been the
historic center of Orange County since its founding by Padre Junipero
Serra on November 1, 1776. Today it is one of California's most
important cultural and educational centers. Mission San Juan Capistrano
is the seventh of 21 Spanish Missions established in California by
Franciscan Padres.
