Description
The San Antonio Spanish missions were the first "gated communities" in Texas. The early Spanish Missions in Texas were built as compounds similar to the medieval monasteries. The local Indians would be invited in and converted to Christianity. Inside this compound or gated community the Indians would be taught the disciplines of farming and European life.
