History

Mission Nuestra Señora del Espiritu Santo de Zuñiga was first established in 1722 at the site of La Salle's Fort on Carcitas Creek in Victoria County. It served the Coco, Cujanes, Karankawa, and other tribes.
In 1726 it moved to Mission Valley along the Guadalupe River, serving the Jaranames and Tamiques. The Mission finally relocated to its current site in 1749 still serving the Jaranames and Tamiques.

The Mission was secularized in 1794.
