On this day in 1786, the feast day of Saint Barbara, Mission Santa Barbara was founded in California by Padre Fermin Lasuen for the Franciscan Order of Missionaries from Spain as the tenth mission of what would later become 21 missions in Alta California. It is the only Mission that has been under the continuous guidance of the Franciscan Friars since its foundation in 1786, and it has the oldest liturgical choral singing tradition of any California mission. Both the California city and county were later named after this mission.
