The San Antonio Conservation Society (SACS) was formed on March 22, 1924, and officially incorporated on July 8, 1925. It has been responsible for saving many city structures from destruction.
What is currently the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park is the result of years of efforts involving SACS and other entities. Its involvement began in the 1920s, when they started working with the United States government to preserve the old missions. These original doors, salvaged from a trash heap, and bought by the San Antonio Conservation Society many years ago, were dedicated by Miss Anna Ellis to the memory of Mrs. Essie Crawford Castanola. They are now preserved at Mission San José y San Miguel de Aguayo, San Antonio, Texas.
The beauty of these old doors tells a story of time gone by.
