Avila Adobe Map
The oldest building in the city, the adobe was the home of Don Francisco Avila, mayor (alcalde) of Los Angeles in 1810. After his wife died, Avila married Encarnacion Sepulveda in 1822. He died ten years later. In 1847, during the Mexican-American War, Commodore Robert Stockton commandeered the adobe for two weeks as his military headquarters. The family moved away in 1868 and after that the adobe served as a restaurant and a boarding house. By 1928 it had fallen into disrepair and was saved from demolition by Mrs. Christine Sterling. Now restored, the building depicts the Californio lifestyle of the 1840s prior to the American occupation. Olvera Street, El Pueblo De Los Angeles State Historic Park. Open Sunday through Monday 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is free.

Mitchell Schoolhouse Adobe Map URL
Colonel Thomas Finley Mitchell, a veteran of the Mexican-American War, moved a miner's shack to Soledad and Sand Canyons in 1860 where he lived and headquartered his 160-acre ranch. In 1865 he constructed a large adobe using parts of the miner's shack. It was used as a school. By 1919, the adobe had fallen into ruin, but was salvaged by Walter Murphy, Mitchell's son-in- law. He used the remaining adobe bricks to build a home for the ranch foreman. Developers destroyed it on August 4, 1986. What remained was moved to Heritage Junction and dedicated on November 5, 1989, and has been restored. The adobe was originally 45 by 60 feet. Open Saturday and Sunday 1 to 4 p.m.
