About National Register Listings
The National Register of Historic Places is the official list of the Nation’s historic places worthy of preservation. Authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Park Service’s National Register of Historic Places is part of a national program to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate, and protect America’s historic and archeological resources.
The District of Delaware has been home to several important corporations throughout its history, including DuPont, one of the world's largest chemical companies. In fact, the district's reputation as a hub for corporate law has led to a significant number of patent and intellectual property cases being tried there.
