Mission San Carlos Borromeo de Carmelo, Carmel
|
|
Because of its architecture and its location on Monterey Bay, the Carmel Mission, as it is generally known, is one of the most beautiful of the mission stations. When it was founded it formed the northernmost point of Spanish dominance. Here, too, soldiers and priests soon separated; Serra moved the mission station some 5mi/8km into a valley by the Carmel river.
