Description
A National Historic Landmark, the San Francisco de Assisi Mission Church is a well-preserved adobe building in the heart of the Ranchos de Taos Historic District in Taos, New Mexico. Completed in 1816, this iconic mission church is an impressive blend of native and Spanish architectural styles. The unique adobe architecture of this photogenic church has made it a favorite subject for many artists, including Ansel Adams and Georgia O'Keefe. San Francisco de Assisi Mission Church remains active today and continues to serve the Ranchos de Taos community.
