The Patagonia Depot
The New Mexico and Arizona Railroad which served Patagonia, was built by the Santa Fe in 1881-82 and was operated after 1897 by the Southern Pacific. The last portion of this line, terminating at Patagonia, was abandoned in 1962.
The Patagonia Depot building dates from the turn of the century. In 1963 the Patagonia-Sonoita Rotary club saved it from demolition and began a continuing effort to preserve it. Since 1974 the City of Patagonia has used it for municipal offices.
