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 historic Newport Mansions, such as The Breakers and Marble House, were built in the late 1800s and early 1900s by wealthy families like the Vanderbilts and Astors as summer homes.
