This was such a lovely piece of history to explore. The original mission church and grounds were beautiful and peaceful to wander around. We were unable to check out the larger basilica as there was a wedding happening when we were there. This was well worth the $7 entrance fee.

Beautiful. Just beautiful. One of the gems of Taos. Definitely worth a stop. Actually the whole little village is also delightful to visit.

Why do call Mission Dolores with "Dolores"

angie | Aug 27, 2019
cesar alvarez | Aug 27, 2019

Wikipedia states "The settlement was named for St. Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan Order, but was also commonly known as "Mission Dolores" owing to the presence of a nearby creek named Arroyo de Nuestra Señora de los Dolores, meaning "Our Lady of Sorrows Creek."

How much of the original structure remains? What were the Native American uprisings (conflicts/revolts)?

Pedro Hernandez | Aug 27, 2018
Jason Ramey | Aug 27, 2018

Most of the original/refurbished structure remains. It's quite a sight when you see it in person. As far as the natives, I've not seen much documentation in regards to conflicts. You could ask the curator at the mission and he might be able to tell you more.

Laila Lopez | Aug 27, 2018
Jose Jordan | Aug 27, 2018

Use at least 3 sources. Start with Wikipedia as one source. Do not cut and paste the text. Teachers can spot this immediately. Have an introduction, body, and conclusion. Punctuate correctly. No run-on sentences. Write the facts in your own words. Have a cool title like this: A Short History of the Mission in San Francisco: From it's Founding to the Present

What tribes were affected.

Why was the mission built in the area of San Francisco?

Rocky’s Hype man | Aug 27, 2018
Jose Jordan | Aug 27, 2018

Because there are sinners everywhere in need of salvation even in the 1700s...and especially there in the 21st century. That and because this mission is part of a chain of missions built along the West coast beginning in Mexico in Baja California. The Spanish missions in California comprise a series of 21 religious outposts or missions established between 1769 and 1833 in today's U.S. State of California. Founded by Catholic priests of the Franciscan order to evangelize the Native Americans, the missions led to the creation of the New Spainprovince of Alta California and were part of the expansion of the Spanish Empire into the most northern and western parts of Spanish North America.

All Christian churches have bells. They serve many purposes in their religious rituals

is the mission for sale?

John DeCesare | Aug 27, 2018
Jose Jordan | Aug 27, 2018

No! It is an important historical landmark intimately tied to the history of California. It's like asking if the Grand Canyon is for sale. But if you go to New York City you'll probably find someone who will be willing to sell you the Brooklyn Bridge.

I see two buildings are they both mission de Asis or are they two different missions?

Guadalupe Garcia | Aug 27, 2018
Mike Dominelli | Aug 27, 2018

The smaller building is the original mission. Its (arguably) the oldest building in San Francisco. The large, ornate building is the newer parish church (basillica).

What does the name of your mission mean in English or who was it named for

valerie palomino | Aug 27, 2018
Jeffrey Prather | Aug 27, 2018

It is named after the patron saint, Saint Francis of Assisi. So in English, it translates to The Mission of Saint Francis of Assisi

Why was the location chosen

valerie palomino | Aug 27, 2018
Jose Jordan | Aug 27, 2018

Each of the 21 California missions was deliberately built to be a day's journey from the other. (A day's journey in the 1700 hundreds.) I would guess that each was built taking into account the concentration of Indians that lived in the area and also that the spot was easy to defend.

Where should one park when visiting the mission?

Carlos Viveros | Aug 27, 2018
Rong “David” Dai | Aug 27, 2018

Street parking nearby is probably your best bet. Parking in SF is tough in general so suggest public transit or taxi/ride share.

Is this the place where they having Community sing Fest ? If so was it is it very crowded last time they had a function like this ?

Rob murphy | Aug 27, 2018
JIM SALINAS SR | Aug 27, 2018

Mission Dolores always has a decent turnout for these type of celebrations and there are plenty of seats available hopefully that answers your question I assume you're not looking to stand during an entire performance and I can virtually assure you that is not going to be the case
