Historical/Interpretive Information/Exhibits, Restroom
The museum helps tell the story of El Camino Real, a story interwoven with that of the CCC architects who sought to faithfully recreate the bygone era of the Spanish empire through the mission restoration. Among other offerings, visitors have the chance to create their own architectural sketch on a piece of “blueprint" paper, inspired by their own connection to the stories they hear in the museum.
