The Misión San Francisco de Asís was founded October 9, 1776. The settlement was named for St. Francis of Assisi, the founder of the Franciscan Order, but was also commonly known as "Mission Dolores" owing to the presence of a nearby creek named Arroyo de los Dolores, or "Creek of Sorrows."
The stamp is located in the Gift Shop behind the counter. You have to ask one of the attendants for the stamp.
You can tour the grounds and the mission for a fee.
The Gift shop entrance is located on Dolores St, even though the address of the mission is 16th street.
Address: 3321 16th Street San Francisco, CA US 94114
