Mission San Carlos Borromeo de Carmel is the burial site of St. Junípero Serra, the founder of the California missions. He was laid to rest there in 1784, and his remains were later moved to a shrine within the mission. Serra played a significant role in the establishment of the Spanish mission system in California.

Father Serra founded 9 of the 21 Franciscan Catholic missions in Alta California (there are also Catholic missions in Baja (Lower) California which is still part of the country of Mexico). After Serra's death, he was named Presidente (pronounced prez-ah-dent-tay) of the Mission Chain. While the first (oldest) of the Alta California missions was in San Diego, Father Serra lived at the second mission - Mission San Carlos Borromeo del Rio Carmelo (the mission of Saint Charles Borromeo on the Carmel River). Serra converted the local native Americans, the Ohlone tribe, to European Catholicism.The Ohlone tribe went as far north as the San Francisco Bay area and was comprised of many sub-tribes.The Ohlone tribe's sub-tribes in the Monterey area were the:- Rumsen/Rumsien of Carmel and the Monterey Peninsula- Esselen of Big Sur- Salinan of the inland valleyRumsens + Esselens + Salinans who lived at the mission were collectively referred to as "Mission Indians" (as soon as any member of any tribe moved to any mission he/she was referred to as a "Mission Indian")Father Serra was buried in the Monterrey Bay.
