The soil of the Albinger Archaeological Museum has revealed much about the people
who have called this place home. Archaeologists and historians have painstakingly pieced
together artifacts, photographs and written records to tell the stories of everyday people dating back
3,500 years.

In the museum building you will find many of the artifacts discovered at this site such as milling stones,
shell beads, arrowheads, bone whistles, crucifixes,medallions, bottles, buttons and pottery. Outside
are a number of archaeological features including the foundations of the “lost mission church,” an
ancient earth oven and the oldest standing structure in Ventura County—the mission water filtration
building.
As a visitor you too can become part of the continuing story which began so long ago as you explore
the exhibits and pause for a moment to appreciate your place in history
