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.
Oregon was the only state in the United States to have a government run by the Ku Klux Klan. In the 1920s, the KKK gained significant political power in Oregon, electing a governor, a mayor, and several legislators. This era of Oregon's history is known as the "Klanbake."
