J-BAR #18287 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Is the bell still there? Is it used? Older than the Liberty Bell, I assume; a treasure for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy B.SASS#26902 Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 The mission has been restored and is in daily use, I don't know if that particular bell is still there but they do have a bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dilapidated mission is on the left behind a tall wooden fence. On the right are several palm trees, other trees and a wind vane. A boy is lying on the ground looking at the mission ruins.” Photographer: Clendenen, L.M. 1887 vía Calisphere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
