Zaragoza metro station[a] is a station of the Mexico City Metro in Venustiano Carranza, Mexico City. It is an underground station with two side platforms serving Line 1 (the Pink Line) between Gómez Farías and Pantitlán metro stations. The station opened on 4 September 1969 as the first terminal of the line, with westward service toward Chapultepec station. Eastward service toward Pantitlán started on 22 August 1984.

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

The station facilities are accessible to 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 includes a transport hub servicing multiple local bus routes. In 2019, the station had an average daily ridership of 46,475 passengers, ranking it the 18th busiest station in the network and the 6th busiest of the line. The station was closed from July 2022 to October 2023 due to modernization works on the tunnel and the line's technical equipment.
