De Vargas Street House, Historic adobe structure in Santa Fe, United States

The De Vargas Street House retains the original dirt floors, low ceilings, and thick adobe walls characteristic of early New Mexican architecture.

Archaeological studies indicate sections of the building's foundation date to the 13th century, when Native American Pueblo communities inhabited the area.

The structure stands in El Barrio de Analco, a neighborhood established by Tlaxcalan warriors who accompanied Spanish settlers in the early 1600s.

The building operates as both a craft shop and museum, with free parking spaces available near the one-way De Vargas Street.

Between 1709 and 1710, the house served as temporary residence for Spanish Territorial Governor Chacon Medina Salazar during San Miguel Church repairs.
