San Miguel Mission

The Chapel of San Miguel is the oldest church in Santa Fe that was a Spanish colonial mission church. Today, it is a U.S. National Historic Landmark. It is located in the Barrio Analco Historic District which is the oldest European settlement in Santa Fe that spreads on the south side of the Rio de Santa Fe. It was built in the early 17th century but due to destruction in Pueblo Revolt it was rebuilt in early 18th century. In the second half of the 18th century the chapel became part of Saint Michael´s College. Even though it was restored several times it still holds its original shape and charm.
