Dublin Heritage Park & Museum

Building in the area began in 1835. Jose Maria Amador had been paid in land for his years of service as a Mexican soldier and as administrator of Mission San Jose. He received a land grant of 16,517 acres in the Amador-Livermore Valley. He built several adobe homes and many small buildings that were used as shops where his Native American workers made soap, blankets, shoes, farm tools, etc., for use on his ranch. Amador’s adobe buildings used to sit across the street from Heritage Park right where Sofi Dublin Apartments are now.
