The Peralta Hacienda Historical Park is the site of the first European settlement in the area, and the only surviving piece of the once sprawling Rancho San Antonio. The centerpiece of the park is the historic Peralta House - a 19th-century, Victorian mansion that has been restored and transformed into a museum that chronicles the daily lives of the early settlers of the East Bay. Although the house itself is open to visitors for only a few hours each week, the park and playground are open throughout the day. Live performances, educational programs, cultural events and other activities are often hosted at the Peralta Hacienda Historical Park, bringing together the people of Oakland.

tripadvisorThis park is historic because of the old hacienda house that is located here. It is splendid old architecture. Unfortunately the park is not well-maintained.
MoreThis site is historic because of the old house and the fact that one of the original Spanish settlements was here for a while. Now it is a neighborhood park, but sadly, not in good condition.
MoreWe were back since friends live near here. The historic house is of importance and worth a quick tour. Sadly the park continues to be neglected and could be much more but the city does not invest here.
MoreThis is the place where the Oakland East Bay area began in 1821 when Luis Peralta was granted a huge piece of land as a member of the Anza expedition. Today a beautiful park and a museum is the Victorian house that was occupied by the Peralta Family in the 19th century. The park land is the very spot where the original adobe the first building ever built in the East Bay was built. If you love history visit this place.
MoreNice setting for this park with a creek and some big trees and the important historic house, but sadly it is not well-maintained.
