Solvang - Old Mission Santa Ines

History
Only after a long pause in what had been a hectic period of building activity did the 19th mission appear, roughly on the site where the Danish township of Solvang is today. The name comes from St Agnes (Spanish Santa Ines), and appears in its Spanish form in the naming of the Santa Ynez mountain chain and of the valley of the same name.
