The Walk » Farther northeast along Cañon
Perdido St are Handlebar Coffee Roasters and
Sojourner Cafe for refueling. Otherwise walk one
block southeast, turning right onto De La Guerra St.

Santa Barbara
Historical Museum
Embracing a romantic cloistered
Spanish-style adobe courtyard, this
peaceful little museum (%805-966-1601;
http://www.santabarbaramuseum.com; 136 E De La
Guerra St; admission by donation; h10am-5pm
Tue-Sat, noon-5pm Sun) has an interesting
collection of local memorabilia,
ranging from the simply beautiful,
such as Chumash woven baskets and
colonial-era textiles, to the simply odd,
like an intricately carved coffer that
belonged to missionary Junípero Serra.

The Walk » Keep walking southwest on De La
Guerra St, crossing Anacapa St. Casa de la Guerra
stands on the northwest side of the block.

Casa de la Guerra
Your admission ticket to El Presidio de
Santa Barbara also includes entry to

Casa de la Guerra (%805-965-0093; http://www.
sbthp.org; 15 E De La Guerra St; adult/child $5/free;
hnoon-4pm Sat & Sun), a grand 18th-century
colonial home with Spanish, Mexican and
American heritage exhibits. Authentically
restored, this whitewashed adobe with
red-tiled roofs was an architectural model
for rebuilding all of downtown after a
devastating 1925 earthquake.

The Walk » Continue walking southwest,
crossing State St over to the Paseo Nuevo
shopping mall. Head northwest four blocks to
Anapamu St and turn left.

Karpeles Manuscript Library
Stuffed with historical written artifacts,
this museum (%805-962-5322; http://www.rain.
org/~karpeles; 21 W Anapamu St; hnoon-4pm
Wed-Sun) is an embarrassment of riches for
history nerds, science geeks, and literary
and music lovers. Traveling exhibits often
spotlight literary masterworks, from
Shakespeare’s to Sherlock Holmes.

The Walk » Head northeast on Anapamu
St. Turn right onto Anacapa St to return to the
courthouse.
