The Kaguyak Village Site, designated 49-AFG-4 and AFG-043, is a historic and prehistoric archaeological site on the Pacific coast of the Alaska Peninsula in Katmai National Park and Preserve. It is the site of a Native village which was abandoned after the eruption of Novarupta in 1912. The historic elements of the site include the remains of a Russian Orthodox church and cemetery, as well as a number of frame house remnants and foundations.[2]

The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1]
