Restored Franciscan Missions in San Antonio for Two Hundredth Anniversary

A historical tour of San Antonio missions highlights the Alamo, Concepcion, Espada, and San Francisco de la Espada. It notes the Alamo’s 1836 siege and the plan to fully rehabilitate sacred churches as part of the city’s centennial celebration, with Cardinal Gibbons backing restoration efforts. The piece describes architectural details, carvings, and the missions’ decline and planned revival amid a broader Texas historic effort.
