EDITORS COMMENTS
Mission San Josè Tumacacori, located in Arizona, USA, is a historic Spanish mission that holds the distinction of being the oldest in the country. Established in 1691 by the Jesuits, the mission was initially named Mission San Cayetano del Tumacacori and was situated on the east side of the Santa Cruz River. However, following the Oodham rebellion of 1751, the mission was relocated to its present site on the west side of the river and renamed Mission San Josè Tumacacori. It was here that the first actual church structure was erected. The mission was preserved in its present form by the Franciscans in 1828. The ruins of the mission, which date back to the 1700s, stand majestically on the west bank of the Santa Cruz River, offering a glimpse into the rich history of the region. The mission's architecture reflects the Spanish influence, with its whitewashed adobe walls and red-tiled roof. The mission's church, with its bell tower, remains an iconic symbol of the area's history and cultural heritage. The mission's peaceful surroundings, combined with its historical significance, make it a popular destination for tourists and history enthusiasts alike. This photograph, taken in the 1930s, captures the mission's timeless beauty and the serene atmosphere that surrounds it.
