| Item Description: | This was the second of several Missions named after St. Joseph, built in 1718 by the Franciscan Monks and was used in converting the Indians. It was also used as a place of refuge from hostile Indians. The hand-carving on the facade of the main entrance is conceded by Experts to be one of the finest specimens of ancient carving extent |
