San Pedro Springs Park-San Antonio’s oldest designated park- is located on land reserved for public use by the Spanish government in the 18th century. Only one public park in America is older- Boston Common, which dates to 1630. In 1856, the United States Army, experimenting with the use of camels, temporarily stabled the animals in San Pedro Springs Park. Sam Houston spoke to a political rally here in 1860, and during the Civil War, prisoners were held in the park.
