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 state of Montana has a unique political culture, with a strong tradition of individualism and libertarianism. The state has a low population density and a large rural population, which has contributed to a strong sense of localism and self-reliance. Montana has often been a bellwether state for political trends in the United States, and its elections have been closely watched by political analysts.
