Tumacacori National Historical Park
Culture, Nature, and Community
Tumacacori sits at a cultural crossroads in the Santa Cruz River valley. Here O'odham, Yaqui, and Apache people met and mingled with European Jesuit and Franciscan missionaries, settlers, and soldiers, sometimes in conflict and sometimes in cooperation. Follow the timeworn paths and discover stories that connect us to enduring relationships, vibrant cultures, and traditions of long ago. Tumacacori National Historical Park is designated as an International Dark Sky Dark Sky Park by the International Dark-Sky Association.
