San Gabriel Arcangel Mission
428 South Mission Drive
San Gabriel, California 91776
Tel. (626) 457-3035
Founded in 1771, San
Gabriel Mission is the 4th mission established in the Franciscan chain
of 21 California Missions. Its bell tower and outside stairway are
very different from the other Missions, as is its construction from
stone, brick and mortar-instead of adobe, and its Spanish-Moorish
style of architecture. Visit the Mission Compound and see how life was
lived so many years ago when people made their own soap and candles
from tallow, leather goods from cattle hides, wine from their own
grapes, and everything else they needed to survive so far from any
source of supply.
