Caption

Old Church of St. Augustine, Isleta, New Mexico – The heavily buttressed, fort-like Mission of St. Augustine of Isleta dates back to 1605-1617 and is therefore as old as any in this county. The edifice is over 100 ft. long, and adjoining it is a series of rooms or conventos built around a patio, bright with flowers and shaded by old trees. A tapia encloses the churchyard.
