San Antonio Missions National Historical Park is a National Historical Park that preserves four of the five Spanish frontier missions in San Antonio, which were established as Catholic religious orders to spread Christianity among the local peoples.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park encompasses 300 years of rich history and culture and takes visitors on a journey through four separate mission sites around the park, including Mission Concepcion, Mission San Jose, Mission San Juan, and Mission Espada. All four of the mission sites still contain active Catholic parishes, which hold regular services in the four historic buildings for the public during park hours.
