In 2013 when my wife's sister died, we could not get back to Midwest. The people at San Albino allowed us to be in the church at the same time the funeral service was being held back home. A beautiful place that has become sacred for us.
On Historic Old Mesilla Plaza...beautiful...after mass you can go to Josaphina's, La Posta, Cafe de Mesilla, or on Sunday, brunch at the Double Eagle. Sheer heaven...
An amazing landmark in Old Mesilla. The mass schedule on Christmas Eve makes for a packed house but it was just beautiful to be there.
Based on other TA reviews, I stopped here in the morning after my one night stay in Las Cruces before continuing my road trip. Even when passing through a place, I try to see something in the area - even if briefly. I arrived around 9am on a weekday and nothing in the plaza was open yet. I'd love to go back to sample the stores and restaurants, it did allow for ease in taking some lovely pics without having to dodge people and cars. I'd say Old Mesilla is worth a stop- even if brief and certainly check out San Albino Church.
This church never fails to impress me. Beautifully appointed, the church is well maintained with an active community. It's a definite must-see.
This is a gorgeous building, worth seeing while in the area. It is not of the same vintage as the other 1850s buildings surrounding Mesilla Plaza, dating instead from the early 20th century, but the adobe style is authentic and the building fits right in.
If not else, the church draws you to the Old Mesilla Plaza which is a must see in Las Cruces. The story of the church and the veterans memorial in front of it are both worth a look-see.
It is a beautiful old church. A wonderful place to visit and to see the beautiful decorations. When in old Mesilla Village this is a Must Visit
Can't rate the inside because it's closed for renovations, but the exterior is lovely. Right on the Plaza facing the historic Gazebo, Hopefully it will be open by the time of our next trip
Went here for a wedding last month and was pleasantly surprised that this very old church was air conditioned. The celebrant came out prior to the wedding service to speak with the congregation asking the out of staters where they from and making small talk and getting acquainted. Very nice.The church was lovely and the pews were comfortable. Nice place for a wedding
