Come to Tubac and experience 2,000 years of Southwest history! We showcase every culture (Native American, Spanish, Mexican, Pioneer American, and Arizonian) with award-winning artifacts and displays to bring those 2,000 years of history to life. See Arizona's first printing press, our original 1885 school house, an archaeological display of Presidio ruins, temporary exhibits and programs on all aspects of Arizona history, a picnic area, and the Juan Bautista de Anza Trailhead. Founded in 1752 as a Spanish frontier fort to defend the mission at Tumacacori, Tubac is the oldest European-settled city in Arizona. Anza was the second commander of Tubac's presidio and staged two overland expeditions from here to found what ultimately became San Francisco.
