Description
Whitewashed exterior profile of Mission San Juan as seen through a brick wall window in San Antonio Missions National Historical Park, San Antonio, Texas, USA. More Missions photos can be found in my San Antonio, Texas gallery.
Mission San Juan Capistrano was founded in 1731 by Spanish Catholics of the Franciscan Order, on the eastern banks of the San Antonio River in present-day Bexar County, Texas. The new settlement (part of a chain of Spanish missions) was named for a 15th-century theologian and "warrior priest" who resided in the Abruzzo region of Italy. The mission San Juan was named after Saint John of Capestrano.
