Beautiful grounds to explore
The church is still active and home to Franciscan Friars.
San Luis Rey has been designated as a historic national landmark in 1970.
Built in 1798 this is the eighteenth of twenty one Missions built by the Spanish along the El Camino Real in California.
Mission San Luis Rey Church is not just a house of worship, but a worthwhile attraction too. Make a pilgrimage and enjoy some moments of quiet contemplation.

To explore this house of prayer, head to Oceanside. There are plenty of other worthwhile attractions in the area, like Oceanside Pier, Oceanside Beach, and Carlsbad State Beach.
