Barrio De Analco Historic District, Historic residential district in Santa Fe, United States

Barrio de Analco Historic District is a historic residential area in Santa Fe containing seven adobe buildings that show early Spanish and Native American building traditions. The structures stand near the Santa Fe River and form a connected group representing different periods.

Tlaxcalan and other Mexican Indian allies of the Spanish, among the founders of Santa Fe in 1609, lived south of the Santa Fe River; the barrio was first mentioned in 1630, when Fray Alonso de Benavides recorded 700 Indians there. After the 1680 Pueblo Revolt most Tlaxcalans stayed in El Paso, and the last mention of them in Analco dates to 1728. The district became a National Historic Landmark in 1968.

The buildings show construction methods developed by Spanish colonists, Tlascalan Indians, and other Native American groups who lived there since the 17th century. You can still see traces of this shared work in the walls and layout of the houses today.

The district can be explored on foot and is located near East De Vargas Street, where most historical sites are found. Guided tours are offered and provide better access to the interiors of the buildings.

The name Analco comes from the Nahuatl language and means 'next to water', referring to its location on the south bank of the Santa Fe River. This name reflects the origins of residents who came from central Mexico.
