To celebrate the site 's history and connection to the Sonoma Mission , Nancy Cline opened the California Missions Museum on the property in 2005 . The museum was built to house a full set of California Mission models that were constructed by a team of German cabinetmakers for the 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition . In 1998 , the Cline family saved the California Mission models from being auctioned off individually and built the museum for their display . The museum also features a life-sized figure of Father Junipero Serra , mission paintings by Robert Morris and Henry Nelson , and two stained-glass panels originally housed in San Francisco 's Mission Dolores prior to the 1906 San Francisco earthquake . The museum is open to the public daily and admission is free of charge
