Peralta Adobe – Fallon House Historic Site
Winter 2012
The Peralta Adobe – Fallon House Historic Site conductings limited public tours, typically on a quarterly basis in conjunction with our Archaeology Days.
San Pedro Square Market is a public market located in the heart of Downtown San José. The Market is alive with more than 20 unique vendors, daily entertainment, and beautiful art created by local artists and craftsmen.
The heart and soul of the project is the historic Peralta Adobe — the oldest building in San José. The Peralta Adobe Plaza offers outdoor seating where you can enjoy a morning coffee, a fabulous lunch, or an evening concert with dinner or a cocktail.
Tours of the Peralta Adobe and the Fallon House can be found on our calendar. If you have any questions, please call 408.918.1047.

Built in 1797, the Peralta Adobe is the last remaining structure from El Pueblo de San José de Guadalupe. See the Adobe’s horno, an outside working oven, or venture inside the home and see two rooms furnished as they might have been when they were occupied by the Gonzales and Peralta families.
