Model of Mission Santa Clara de Asis


Mission Santa Clara

Mission Santa Clara de Asis 1777
This was the eighth of the 21 Alta California Missions and was founded while Father Serra was Father President of the missions. It was the first California mission named for a female saint, Santa Clara. Moved several times due to flooding and earthquakes, the modern church recreates the spirit of the church of 1825 with its very ornate facade.
