San Miguel Mission, also known as San Miguel Chapel, is a Spanish colonial mission church in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Built between approximately 1610 and 1626, it is claimed to be the oldest church in the United States. The church was damaged during the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 but was rebuilt in 1710 following the Spanish reconquest and served for a time as a chapel for the Spanish soldiers. The wooden reredos, which includes a wooden statue of Saint Michael dating back to at least 1709, was added in 1798. Though the church has been repaired and rebuilt numerous times over the years, its original adobe walls are still largely intact despite having been hidden by later additions. The church is a contributing property in the Barrio De Analco Historic District, which is a U.S. National Historic Landmark.〔 and 〕 Sunday mass is still held at the chapel. == Gallery == Image:American chapel of San Miguel, by Wittick, Ben, 1845-1903.jpg Image:The San Miguel chapel, by Brown, William Henry, 1928-.jpg Image:San Miguel chapel, 300 years old, by Brown, William Henry, 1928-.jpg Image:San Miguel altar.jpg|San Miguel Mission, altar & interior, 1934.

It is thought that the 8 was changed to a 3 during the late 1800s as a means of luring in tourists. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「San Miguel Mission」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
