Talk:Mission San Carlos Borromeo de Carmelo

There is a church (actually a cathedral) in Monterey with a similar name and vaguely similar appearance. That church was founded in 1770, then the mission was moved to this one in Carmel in 1771, while the original continued to operate as a chapel for the governor--see the Official Websites of each. I'm removing the link to the incorrect photo (of the original mission, which became known as the Royal Presidio Chapel) and re-linking that to the Monterey church where it belongs. I'll correct the historical details here when I get around to it (but I won't be upset if someone else jumps in!).--BillFlis 14:55, 30 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

I think the presence of the George Vancouver sketch here is more of this confusion. The article says the mission moved to Carmel the year after it was founded, which would have been 1771, while this 1792-dated sketch says "Monterrey" [sic].--BillFlis 22:56, 16 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

I have rated the importance of this article as "Top" because of the significance of use as the Alta California headquaters as well as the location of the death and requested site of Father Serra's buriel and tomb.--Amadscientist (talk) 02:47, 20 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

The entire Alta California section of the Catholic Church isn't that important. The current rating elevated it above the College of Cardinals and Francis of Assisi in importance to Catholicism. I believe this mission is sufficiently obscure to be properly rated of low importance. Huon (talk) 10:34, 27 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
