National Historic Site

National Historic Site

Als National Historic Site werden in den Vereinigten Staaten einzelne Gebäude, Orte oder Einrichtungen ausgewiesen, die als Denkmale historisch besonders bedeutend sind. Fast alle National Historic Sites stehen im Eigentum der US-Bundesregierung und sie werden vom National Park Service unter dem Dach des Innenministeriums verwaltet. Der United States Forest Service verwaltet ein Objekt, das Grey Towers National Historic Site.

Gesetzliche Grundlage ist der National Historic Site Act von 1935. Während anfangs einige der Gebiete durch das Innenministerium ausgewiesen wurden, ist heute die Zustimmung des Kongresses erforderlich.

Derzeit (2008) gibt es in den USA 89 National Historic Sites von sehr unterschiedlicher Art:

Größere Gebiete, die wegen ihrer geschichtlichen Bedeutung geschützt werden, sind in der Regel als National Historical Park ausgewiesen.
