Zaragoza Birthplace State Historic Site, Historic house museum in Goliad, Texas, United States.

Zaragoza Birthplace State Historic Site is a reconstructed single-family house on its original foundation beside Presidio La Bahía, about a mile south of the Goliad State Park entrance. Raiford Stripling of San Augustine drew the plans and Stein Lumber Company of Fredericksburg built it in 1974. A 10-foot bronze statue of Ignacio Zaragoza, given by the people of Puebla, stands before an amphitheater on the grounds.

The house was reconstructed by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department based on the original structure from 1829 where the General was born. The rebuilding marks the connection between this Texas location and Mexico's past during a period when the land belonged to the Mexican nation.

Each May 5, Cinco de Mayo celebrations mark General Zaragoza's 1862 victory at Puebla, where his 600 troops repelled 6,500 French soldiers. The site keeps that date in its own history: it opened to the public on May 5, 1976, the 114th anniversary of the battle.

The reconstructed house stands about one mile south of the Goliad State Park entrance, outside the park grounds, so it is reached by road rather than on foot from the park. Goliad State Park itself opens seven days a week and charges an entrance fee. Group tours of the birthplace must be arranged in advance.

The bronze statue was donated by residents of Mexico and creates a physical link between two locations in the General's life story. This cross-border gesture shows how the military leader is honored across national boundaries.
