Serra Museum
Junipero Serra Museum is located in Presidio Park very near to the Old Town State Historic Park. Built in 1929, the mission-style building reflecting the Spanish Revival architecture is a museum dedicated to remember the important historic event where Father Junipero Serra and Captain Gaspar de Portola established the first mission and fortified settlement in California. Inside the museum visitors will see real examples of the time period including furniture, tools, housewares and even a cannon. The pieces are part of the Native American, Mexican, Spanish and American history before 1929.
The Serra Museum is owned and operated by the San Diego Historic Society. The museum also has a store where visitors can find books on San Diego and California history.
