The National Register of Historic
Places is the Nation's official list of cultural resources worthy of
preservation. Authorized under 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
archeological resources. Properties listed in the Register include districts,
sites, buildings, structures, and objects that are significant in American
history, architecture, archeology, engineering, and culture. The National
Register is administered by the National Park Service, which is part of the
U.S. Department of the Interior. The Mountain Meadows Massacre Site is
included among the over
80,000 listings that make up the National Register.
