    Description

    Mission San Luis Obispo about 1890. Father Junipero Serra founded the mission in 1772. During the 1880s, it's adobe walls were covered with wooden clapboard siding, and a New England-style bell tower was added. These alterations were removed in about 1934, and the mission's facade and roofline were restored to their original style.
