Teotihuacán (hääldus teɪˌoʊtiːwəˈkɑːn; Teōtīhuacān) on muistne Vahe-Ameerika linn Mehhikos Mehhiko orus México osariigis, Méxicost umbes 40 km kaugusel kirdes.

Teotihuacán sai alguse usukeskusena Mehhiko kiltmaal 1. sajandil eKr, kuid olulisemate monumentide ehitamine jätkus arvatavasti aastani 250 pKr. Arvatakse, et Teotihuacán võis püsida kuni 7.–8. sajandini, kuigi selle tähtsamad ehitised põletati maha aastaks 550 pKr. Linna häving võib olla seotud 536. aasta vulkaanilise talvega.
