Carmel Mission

Carmel Mission, Mission San Carlos Borrome Del Rio Carmelo, sits behind adobe walls in a quiet area of Carmel. Carmel Mission is considered one of the most beautiful missions in the chain of nine missions that stretches along California’s Central Coast.  Carmel Mission offers the visitor peaceful grounds. Founded in 1770, Carmel Mission was the second of the Alta California Missions.  In 1836, Carmel Mission was abandoned and its lands were sold off; after that it quickly fell into ruin. Two restoration attempts in 1884 and 1924 both failed. It wasn’t until 1931 that a research and restoration program was started, which would bring the Mission into the form you see today.
