Misión San Ignacio Kadakaamán, Baja California, Mexico
View Original Description
Located right on the picturesque town plaza of San Ignacio, this mission is one of the most beautiful and easy-to-visit missions in the peninsula. In its time as an operating mission, many expeditions were launched from San Ignacio to find new mission sites. One of these expeditions in 1746 was to the Colorado River Delta and put an end to the misconception that California was an island. The beautiful cut stone church that now stands was started by the Jesuits and completed in 1786 by the Dominican, Padre Juan Gómez.
