About Misión de Nuestra Señora de Loreto Concho
Misión de Nuestra Señora de Loreto was founded in 1697 by Jesuit missionary Juan María de Salvatierra, becoming the first permanent Spanish mission in the Californias. It served as the administrative and spiritual headquarters from which Jesuit and later Franciscan missionaries organized the chain of missions extending through Baja and Alta California. It anchored Spain's colonization.
