San Miguel de Horcasitas is a town in San Miguel de Horcasitas Municipality, in the Mexican state of Sonora. San Miguel is located in the center of the state at an elevation of 518 meters.

The town was founded as a Spanish {{lang|es|presidio}}, and named for the viceroy of New Spain, Juan Francisco de Güemes. From 1749 to 1777, it was the provincial capital of Sonora.{{cite book |last1=Stagg |first1=Albert L. |title=The First Bishop of Sonora: Antonio de los Reyes, O.F.M |date=1 June 1976 |publisher=University of Arizona Press |isbn=978-0-8165-0549-4 |pages=7,13 |edition=0 |language=English}}
