Mount Zion First Baptist Church

Denver Heights COGIC, also known as The Mother Church, is a Pentecostal church in San Antonio, Texas. It has historical significance since it is one of the first churches in the United States to be founded after the Azusa Street Revival that took place in Los Angeles, California on April 14, 1906. The participants received criticism from secular media and Christian Theologians for behaviors considered outrageous and unorthodox at the time. Today, the revival is considered by historians to be the primary catalyst for the spread of Pentecostalism in the 20th century. Denver Heights is considered to be the birthplace of modern-day Pentecostalism in San Antonio and South Texas.The church currently is affiliated with the Texas Southwest Jurisdiction of the Churches of God in Christ. Denver Heights COGIC works with the Greater Alamo District for regional representation and participates on a Jurisdictional, National, and International Level.

Recent tenants include the San Antonio Commanders of the Alliance of American Football and the San Antonio Talons of the Arena Football League.

It serves as the state's primary center for multicultural education, with exhibits, programs, and events like the Texas Folklife Festival, an annual celebration of the many ethnicities that make up the population of Texas. It has been held yearly since 1972. The facility, established by the Texas Legislature on May 27, 1965, originally served as the Texas Pavilion at HemisFair '68 before being turned over to the University of Texas System in 1969. UTSA assumed administrative control of the museum in 1973. In 1986, the System designated the Institute as a campus of the University of Texas at San Antonio. Now, it is part of UTSA's HemisFair Campus. It is located near the Alamo and the River Walk. The Institute of Texan Cultures, through its research, collections, exhibits and programs, serves as the forum for the understanding and appreciation of Texas and Texans. The 182,000-square-foot (16,900 m2) complex has 65,000-square-foot (6,000 m2) of interactive exhibits and displays. The library on the third floor contains manuscripts, rare books, personal papers, over 3 million historical photos and over 700 oral histories. Funding for the museum comes primarily from three sources: biennial legislative appropriations; exhibit floor and special event admissions; grants, contributions, and other locally generated funds such as the rental of the museum's facilities, and the sale of its publications, audiovisuals, library services, and merchandise from The Museum Store. Major support is provided by the museum's Development Board. The Texas Legislature cut appropriations for the institute by 25% in 2011 causing the institute to rely more on private donations and corporate sponsorship. ITC fulfills its mandate as the state's center for multicultural education by investigating the ethnic and cultural history of the state and presenting the resulting information with a variety of offerings: Exhibits, programs, and special events designed to entertain, inspire, and educate A library focusing on ethnic and cultural history A historical photo collection of more than 3.5 million images An outreach program to schools and other groups Teacher-training workshops.There are displays in the museum representing many cultures and their impact on the history and development of Texas. In early 2010, ITC became an affiliate as part of the Smithsonian Affiliates program. Affiliate status grants the institute access to the Smithsonian’s artifacts, education, and performing arts programs, expert speakers, teacher workshops, and resources to complement and broaden exhibitions. The Affiliation agreement marks a new era for the institute. A series of upgrades are planned to revitalize main exhibit floor. As UTSA strives to achieve national research university status, the University's museum strives to become a cultural institution of equal caliber.

The Old San Antonio City Cemeteries Historic District, also known as the Eastside Cemetery Historic District, is a 103-acre complex collection of the oldest cemeteries in San Antonio, all established between 1853 and 1904. The individual cemeteries in the district were once part of land acreage that the City of San Antonio parceled off and sold to local churches and other organizations to be used as their private cemeteries. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. The cemeteries are notable for their layout and size, their diversity of design (from simple to formal), their funerary monuments (from works of accomplished sculptors to folk design), and for the array of community leaders interred there. While burials in 24 of the cemeteries are predominantly Anglo, seven cemeteries are solely or largely African American. There are scattered Hispanic burials, though the majority of Hispanics in the 19th century were interred in San Fernando Cemetery, established in ca.l855 on San Antonio's west side. The exact number of individual cemeteries in the complex is either 31 or 32, depending on the sourcing. Officially, the count is usually 31. However, the sourced table below contains 32 listings. San Antonio Parks and Recreation Department puts the number at 31. Both the University of the Incarnate Word and the San Antonio Conservation Society list 32.By far, the largest burial ground in the complex is the San Antonio National Cemetery, approximately one square block in size. It was created in 1867, when the City of San Antonio parceled off a plot of land from its municipal cemetery and donated it to the Federal Government. Within the grounds are the graves of veterans of the American Civil War, both those who served in the Confederate States Army, as well as Union soldiers who served in the conflict and had originally been buried elsewhere. It is believed that older graves pre-dating the American Civil War were also moved to the cemetery, as private monuments. Over 300 of the graves are unknown soldiers. Among the dead are African American Buffalo Soldiers, and other military veterans of all races. 13 Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, four of whom are buried as "unknown soldiers", rest in the cemetery.
