Visit Missions along El Camino Real de Tierra Adentro

Visit the Missions along the Trail

The mission system is a window into the history of the trail. The mission system strengthened Spain's ability to hold and settle the new lands in the Americas. Priests and soldiers were sent to pave the way. Missions were both the city of God and the city of men. You can travel to these mission sites today and discover their stories connected to the trail: 

• Presidio Chapel of San Elizario
• Socorro Mission
• Ysleta Mission
• Old San Miguel Church
