Construction on the church began around 1772 and was completed in 1815 by Franciscan Fathers and its patron is Saint Francis of Assisi. It is made of adobe as are many of the Spanish missions in New Mexico. It is located a few miles south of Taos Pueblo and has inspired among the greatest number of depictions of any building in the United States. It was the subject of Georgia O'Keeffe paintings and Ansel Adams photographs.  It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1970. It is also designated as a World Heritage church.
