Diego Sepúlveda Adobe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Diego Sepúlveda Adobe is an adobe structure built between 1820 and 1823 as part of an estancia (station) of Mission San Juan Capistrano, situated on the banks of the Santa Ana River in what is the present-day city of Costa Mesa, California. Constructed to house the mayordomo and herdsmen who tended the Mission's cattle, the adobe and its surrounding property were deeded to Don Diego Sepúlveda (a former alcalde of the Pueblo of Los Angeles) as a of the Rancho Santiago de Santa Ana after secularization of the Alta California missions in 1834.
Today the facility is maintained by the Costa Mesa Historical Society as a museum.
