Arizona is home to some of the most rich and fascinating history in the nation.
It is uniquely geographically positioned near Mexico and the many Native American tribes, two populations of historic communities. It’s also home to some historic mining villages and Wild West towns.
For that reason, the Grand Canyon State is home to numerous historic towns , like Prescott, Wickenburg and Globe. Many of the towns have buildings that were built over 100 years ago. The buildings range from houses to pueblos to churches, and many of them are still standing and being used to this day.
Here are some of the oldest standing structures in Arizona.
What are the oldest buildings in metro Phoenix?
Metro Phoenix is home to some multiple dated structures, even ones that are over 100 years old.
You may think the Hotel San Carlos or the Westward Ho buildings may be the oldest ones in the city, and they are pretty historic, having been constructed during the late 1920s.
But those don’t compare to some other buildings around the Valley.
