San Francisco de Assisi Mission Church
This National Historic Landmark was constructed between 1772 and 1816 in Rancho de Taos, New Mexico. Many photographers and other artists favor the view of the back of the church, but the rest of it is photogenic, too. Residents of Rancho de Taos re-mud the church every spring.
