Piramida Matahari adalah bangunan terbesar di Teotihuacan. Piramida ini kemungkinan dibangun pada tahun 200 M,[3] dan juga merupakan salah satu yang terbesar di Mesoamerika. Piramida ini terletak di antara Piramida Bulan dan kompleks Ciudadela di pusat kota Teotihuacan.

Nama "Piramida Matahari" dicetuskan oleh orang-orang Aztek yang mengunjungi kota ini beberapa abad setelah kota tersebut ditinggalkan.
