Pio Pico State Historic Park

With Hispanic Heritage Month taking place from September 15 through October 15, this is the perfect time to visit some of the many places around Southern California that preserve the contributions, achievements, and histories of the Latinx community. While fourth graders in Fullerton learn about California history through the missions, there’s another historic landmark equally close to home: Pio Pico State Historic Park.

This “little ranch” and adobe home at Pio Pico State Historic Park is now surrounded by the communities of Whittier and Pico Rivera east of Los Angeles. Much has changed since Pico’s time, but for local and state-wide history, Pio Pico State Historic Park is a spectacular example of life in early California.
