A little bit of history

San Jose's early beginnings reflect a cross section of California's colorful past. As the state's first civil settlement under Spanish rule, El Pueblo de San Jose de Guadalupe was founded on November 29, 1777--a time when New England colonists were just beginning their war for independence.

The purpose of the first settlement was to raise crops and cattle to feed soldiers encamped at the Presidios of Monterey and San Francisco. San Jose became the first official colony with families since only the Franciscans, who founded the 21 California Missions under direction of Father Junipero Serra, had previously accompanied the early explorers.

Traces of this historic past can be seen nestled among the modern high-rises and contemporary atmosphere.
