Description
San Miguel Mission in Santa Fe, New Mexico is said to be the oldest church structure originally built in the continental USA. The original adobe walls and altar were built in 1610 by the Tlaxcalan Indians from Mexico. Much of the structure was rebuilt 100 years later in 1710. The building has been within the U.S. since 1848, when the New Mexico territory was annexed.
