The image is of the San Miguel Chapel (Mission) in Santa Fe, New Mexico, widely considered the oldest church in the United States.

Construction of the original adobe church began around 1610.
The church was damaged during the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 and largely rebuilt in 1710.
It sits upon its original foundation and parts of the original walls are still standing.
The chapel continues to hold regular religious services today.
