Welcome to National Register of Historic Places, the official list of the Nation's historic places worthy of preservation. Our national heritage is significant to understanding our country's past and to recognizing the contributions of previous generations. This site provides information for the public and professionals on properties listed in the National Register, as well as other historic preservation programs and activities. The National Register of Historic Places is the Nation's official list of cultural resources worthy of preservation. Authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Register is part of a national program to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate, and protect our historic and archaeological resources. The National Register is administered by the National Park Service, which is part of the U.S. Department of the Interior.

The National Register includes the following categories of properties:

• districts


• sites


• buildings


• structures


• objects

Properties are listed in the National Register for their local, state, or national significance in American history, architecture, archaeology, engineering, or culture.

The National Register is a planning tool used by federal, state, and local governments, as well as private organizations and individuals, to identify and protect historic properties. Properties listed in the National Register may qualify for federal tax benefits. They may also be eligible for state and local historic preservation grants and loans.
