Review & FAQ:

Nestled on two acres a short distance from the San Luis Rey Mission is the Heritage Park Village and Museum. Once the original town center, the two-acre park was set up as a permanent memorial to Oceanside’s heritage. Here you will find the original General Store, a blacksmith shop, stables, a jail and many other buildings.

The town center was chosen due to its location on the old Spanish exploration trail, which later became a stagecoach route between San Diego and Los Angeles. Situated in the middle of the town center is a beautiful pavilion and grass area for families to relax and take in their surroundings. Learn about the history of Oceanside and the important role it played in the movement of early Americans.
