Zaragoza metro station is a station of the Mexico City Metro in the city's borough of Venustiano Carranza. It is an underground stop with two side platforms serving Line 1 (Pink Line) between Gómez Farías and Pantitlán. It was inaugurated on 4 September 1969, and opened the following day, as the eastern terminal of the line, providing service west toward Chapultepec station. An eastward expansion toward Pantitlán started on 22 August 1984.

Zaragoza metro station services the colonias (neighborhoods) of 4 Árboles and Puebla along Calzada Ignacio Zaragoza, from which it takes its name. In turn, the avenue honors Ignacio Zaragoza, the Secretary of War and Navy during the 1862 Battle of Puebla (internationally known as Cinco de Mayo). The station's pictogram depicts a silhouette of a nearby equestrian statue dedicated to Zaragoza.

The station facilities offer accessibility for people with disabilities, featuring elevators, tactile pavings, wheelchair ramps, and braille signage plates. Inside is a cultural display, an Internet café, and a health module. Outside, the station is serviced by a transportation hub connecting multiple local bus routes. It was closed from 2022 to 2023 due to modernization works on the tunnel and the line's technical equipment. In 2025, Zaragoza metro station had an average daily ridership of 22,727 passengers, ranking it the 44th busiest station in the network.
