Truly a gem of El Paso and the state of Texas, the Ysleta Mission is the oldest mission in the state of Texas and an icon to Spaniards and the Native Americans where their cultures came together. The Ysleta Mission is a beautiful Catholic Church that has stood the test of time and is a must see along the Mission Trail. I also received my First Communion in this Church many years ago and it will forever be a special place to me.

This is the oldest Mission in El Paso. I travel and am fascinated by Missions and ancient architecture. This was a great find. It has a lot of history; too bad we couldnt get inside!

Nice place to stop for a quick visit.

Historical very well-kept the attended is very knowledgeable very nice gift shop I would recommend go visit

This year fungi mungle was the closing act for the Missions Bazaar. They rocked. All ages got into the music. Hope theyll be regulars at the bazaars. My God mothers a groupie. Lol. Really enjoyed her and my mom getting into the show. A true memory to treasure. I know they couldnt here her but my nina kept screaming Jungle Boogie!! The gentleman behind us was really thrilled to sing along.

Beautiful historic site. Still offers mass. Unfortunately we missed it and were unable to go inside but we were happy to enjoy the stop none the less.

What a beautiful place. Great vibe. And they have a mission market once a month that has amazing vendors!

Nice picture opportunity.

Pretty mission in good condition.

Beautiful Mission. People were showing their love and connection to Mt. Carmel Church.

Good experience to read and learn about this church’s historical background.

The mission is beautiful beyond words. Also every first Sunday of the month they have a market. From 8am-2pm. The gift shop is pretty amazing also. #marketatthemission

This church is beautiful, is very accesible from any part of El Paso area. I highly recommend to do the Mission Trail. The church buildings are in close proximity. Take advantage of this historic place, is part of our Mexican American history.

My grandfather past away so we had the church services here at Old Ysleta. The place took me back a few years and they had dozens of flowers, my he rest in piece.

Love the picture. going on a field trip here. i think.

Very pretty old church. Not too much to see inside. Lots of old history but the church itself had burnt down many times. I was able to park the church itself. Should not take too long to see it. Was in sort of a isolated community a little bit away from downtown.

This is the oldest of three historic missions on the Camino Real de Tierra Adentro, the ancient highway from Mexico City up through Santa Fe. A funeral was underway when I arrived. So, I did not go in. However, this will be worth a return visit when I have time. Its beautiful as are the other missions.

During the COVID-19 pandemic in the rain we were the only ones here!

Loved this little store. Nice items for sale. Bought an antique baby Jesus at a reasonable,price. Will cherish it always.Friendly sales ladies.

Its nice to see history that wasnt demolished. Theres a small gift shop with items made from the local Puebla/Tigua tribe. Its located right next to the Tigua Casino.

Historic Landmark. Established in 1680 by the Tigua Indians this is the oldest town in Texas. Tiguas continue to worship at the nearby Lady of Mt. Carmel with the feast of sant Antonio da Padua on June 13 being the most important for the tribe.

Come worship the Lord in this historical church which has served it community for many years. Or just come discover its historical importance. All are welcomed!

Attended my Cousins Quincenerria! Its a pretty nice Old Church! Liked the Priest! Seating was very uncomfortable! Other then that the Ceremony was very nice!

Yea its cool

A historic, nostalgic and spiritual experience all at once.

Very nice old mission with lots of history.

Free parking is available. The gift shop worker was very polite and informative. Photography is allowed inside.

Love this church... My mother and father married there. ️

What a way to motivate the mass Fr. thank you. Beautiful place!

400 years old catholic church, you can feel and touch el paso history

You can go inside and look around but theres not a whole lot to see here. Theres maybe 5-10 minutes worth of material.

Bring me peace reflection on meditation and prayer and enjoy the fun of going to the Bazaar music dancing and food

Come join us for our masses eucharistic celebration we have lovely people

Excellent vintage church that was built by the Spanish in 1682 in an effort to colonize that part of Texas and to convert the indigenous (Commanche, Chiricahua Apache & Tigua Tiwa) people in the area to christianity. Very beautiful and historic church. Hard wood floors, wooden benches. Beautiful place to worship and there is a casino near by with games and alcohol. All Praise be to Christ Jesus.

Present for the Funeral of renowed El Paso Civil Rights Attorney, Enrique Moreno, a victim of cancer at age 63.

I love the Old Ysleta Mission. I havent been to one in such a long time but I will be going more often.

I love it but people should respect the ground where the church is like dont smoke near the church wait till you get out of the parking

The Carnival was a 5 star rating. Won a cake in the cake walk, plus the food is always awesome.
