See Leonis Adobe Museum
A living history museum preserving one of the oldest structures in the greater Los Angeles area, the Leonis Adobe, a Victorian-style ranch house with portions dating back to 1844, now restored and furnished alongside a ranch with petting animals and antique barns and equipment to illustrate California ranch life in the 1880s. Attached to the museum is Calabasas Creek Park, an excellent spot for picnics that is landscaped to resemble an 1880s-period garden with some historical exhibits such as an old jail and a recreated Native American village.
