Summary
Significance: First established in 1716, then relocated in 1731 on its present site, the Mission San Francisco de la Espada is one of five extant mission complexes in San Antonio dating from the eighteenth century. These buildings are of great significance to the study of colonial Texas history, providing the observer some concept of that frontier institution which helped to contribute to the development of Texas.
