Grist Mill Animation Video

The Grist Mill at Mission San José was an important part of the establishment of a new Spanish culture and settlement. This video also depicts how the water from the San Antonio River was carried to the farm fields and to the mission by acequias, or the gravity-fed irrigation system.

This animation project was made possible by Mission Heritage Partners.
