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 first American military victory of the Revolutionary War took place in South Carolina. In 1775, a small group of American patriots led by William Moultrie successfully defended Fort Sullivan (now Fort Moultrie) on Sullivan's Island from a British attack. The victory prevented the British from gaining control of Charleston Harbor and gave a boost to the American cause.
