Route 66 Centennial

Take the Original Route 66 to Santa Fe

Santa Fe's Route 66

Throughout 2026, Santa Fe and New Mexico will join the eight-state commemoration of the Centennial Anniversary of Route 66, and you can, too!

Overall, the celebration promises to be a big deal as the appeal of Route 66 to many domestic and international travelers has only grown. Cruise the stretch through Santa Fe, beginning on College Street, now Old Santa Fe Trail, to imagine what car travel was like 100 years ago and marvel at how many businesses and landmarks have withstood the test of time, including La Fonda on the Plaza, the New Mexico Museum of Art, and the historic Santa Fe Plaza.

Then & Now

Santa Fe was on the original Route 66 from 1926 to 1937. Scroll to see how it has changed.
