Camp Naco is a cornerstone of the Buffalo Soldiers history in Arizona. Established in 1911 as a tent camp in Naco, Arizona, the 9th and 10th Cavalry of Buffalo Soldiers were assigned from Fort Huachuca to keep the Mexican Revolution hospitalities from spilling across the border.

Camp Naco was one of only two such facilities constructed of adobe and the only one still standing today. It passed into private ownership in 1960.

Today, it is part of the Naco Heritage Alliance and is owned by the City of Bisbee.
