San Geronimo, New Mexico
With its irrigated farms, common pasture, and location at an important crossroads on a branch of the Santa Fe Trail, the remote mountain village of San Geronimo exemplifies the early to mid-19th century Mexican land grant settlements of northern New Mexico. Many village buildings were constructed of regional materials – log, stone, and adobe – which residents have learned to repair, maintain, and preserve using traditional techniques. The San Geronimo Historic District was entered into the National Register of Historic Places on November 15, 1983.  |
