Reviews of Old Mission Santa Barbara 1786
"If you're in the area you must see this historic mission. You can feel the history as you walk through. What struck me was there was no hallway you had to enter each room to get to another room."
"Nice architecture and a cool adjacent park with some good views of the mountains and the ocean. Didn’t go for the tour so really only spent about 20 minutes walking around but worth a quick stop for sure!"
"This is a beautiful spot to take in some reflection. I didn't go on the tour, I attended mass. We were dismissed through the courtyard, which gave me a peak. Nice lawn for a picnic, free parking in the lot."
"Beautiful architecture, priceless antiques and fascinating history in this still functioning mission founded and run by the Franciscan priests. Remnants of native American structures and even an ancient section of an aqueduct show how this was once a fully self-supporting establishment. A must see in SB."
"A beautiful place to visit with lots of history. The tour is self-guided with lots of information and artifacts. The "Lone Woman" was very interesting and they have put together a room on her. Lots of art from the 1700s and 1800s. The friars, from the story of the place were gardeners, but I found it ironic that the square and the rose gardens were all being cared for by contracted workers. This is still an operating mission."
