The Mexican Consulate is a historic adobe house in Yuma, Arizona. It was built circa 1892 for Dionicio Sanchez and his wife, Mary.[2] In 1897, it was purchased by John Stoffela, who rented it to Henry M. Gandolfo, the Mexican consul, in the 1900s.[2] The house housed the Mexican consulate in Yuma while Gandolfo resided there.[2] It remained in the Stoffela family until 1978.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since December 7, 1982.[1]
