| Mission San Luis Rey de Francia |
| Mission San Luis Rey de Francia was founded 13 June 1798 (18th in order) by Padre Fermin Francisco de Lasuen. The mission is named for Louis IX, King of France (1215-1270). Because of its large size the mission has been nicknamed "King of the Missions." The Indian name for the mission location was Tacayme. The mission is in the shape of a cross and the interior has double-dome wooden construction. The quadrangle contains the first pepper tree in California; the sunken gardens continue to be of interest. San Antonio de Pala is an asistencia to this mission. The Las Flores property is also claimed to be an asistencia. |
