The city of Oceanside has granted Mission San Luis Rey a permit to restore its historic lavandería, also known as the 'sunken gardens.' The restoration project aims to showcase daily life at the mission over 200 years ago.
Visitors to Oceanside 's Mission San Luis Rey soon will get a better glimpse of what daily life was like there more than 200 years ago. The city granted the mission a permit this week to restore its historic lavandería, also known as the ' sunken gardens .' In pioneer days, water from the nearby San Luis Rey River was diverted to the low-lying area for bathing, a laundry, and irrigating downstream crops.
The plan is proceeding now because of the recent completion of the mission’s Hacienda, a retirement community of 213 apartments with independent living, assisted living and memory care facilities. It opened last year at the southern end of the mission grounds. 'This is literally the front door of their community,' Grimes said, and the restored pathways and gardens will provide residents and visitors with a place for recreation and education.
