"CELEBRATING HERITAGE, SHARING FLAVOR"
SPANISH TOWN
We pay homage to Riverside’s original settlements, La Placita and Agua Mansa, established by Lorenzo Trujillo alongside 10 families in 1842, on the opposite banks of the Santa Ana River. In the late 1860s and early 1870s, Riverside’s pioneers affectionately referred to this community as “Spanish Town.”

THE TRUJILLO ADOBE
STHF’s mission revolves around the restoration of the Trujillo Adobe, Trujillo School, and Trujillo Cantina, all while envisioning an “old town” Riverside that offers a captivating experience of Early California’s history.
The funds raised through the Tamale Festival play a pivotal role in advancing these ambitious endeavors.
