Description: San Salvador Mission Church in Burleson County, Texas, United States was opened in 1908 and designated a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 1974. Marker text: "San Salvador, a mission of St. Anthony's Catholic Church, Bryan, was named for the patron saint of Cefalu, Sicily, the native village of Italian immigrants who came here in 1894. Religious services were held in homes until 1908, when devout families each gave cotton from ten field rows to buy materials, and the men worked six weeks to build this church. First Mass was said at its altar in Oct. 1908. In 1952 the building was remodeled, and a new Altar was added in 1965."
