San Lazaro is an archaeological site of pueblos in the U.S. state of New Mexico.

It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1964.[2] At that time it was declared:

San Lazaro consists of the ruins of two pueblos, one prehistoric and the other a planned historic pueblo, which together represent the largest ruin in this area. The ruins thus offer opportunities for research into the development and history of Puebloan peoples in the Galisteo Basin.[2]
