- The northernmost California mission and the plaza where the Bear Flag rose in 1846
- More
- The 1823 mission, Vallejo's barracks, and his Victorian home Lachryma Montis ring the plaza where American settlers raised the Bear Flag in June 1846. It's a walkable history lesson embedded in a functioning town square — pair it with lunch off the plaza.
