The San Antonio Missions National Historical Park is made up of several different missions, including Mission Concepcion and Mission San Jose, that people fled to during the early 1700’s to escape drought, deadly diseases, and Apache raids. These people essentially gave up their traditional ways of life and basically became Spanish. Mission Concepcion is America’s oldest unrestored stone church, a National Historic Landmark in itself, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Mission San Jose is the San Antonio area’s largest mission, which was nearly completely restored during the 1930’s. The site provides more of a complete mission complex picture.
