List of National Historic Landmarks in Maine

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of National Historic Landmarks in Maine lists the historical objects and places that are classified as National Historic Landmarks (NHL) in the American state of Maine and are under the supervision of the National Park Service (NPS), an agency of the US Department of the Interior . These landmarks meet special criteria with regard to their national importance that set them apart from the set of other cultural monuments on the US National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).

This list also includes one other Maine property that has nationwide historical significance: National Historic Sites , National Historical Parks , National Memorials, and several other entities are areas, landmarks, or memorials in the United States that are not designated by the Department of the Interior, but was awarded directly by orders of Congress or the President . Such historical monuments are usually also under the protection of the National Park Service, but they were usually not declared in addition to the NHL if the protection status was granted before the introduction of the Landmarks program in 1960. The property, listed in Maine as a national monument of this type, is listed by the National Park Service on the NHL list for Maryland, it is the only International Historic Site in the United States, the Saint Croix Island International Historic Site , which has the same status in Canada .

Finally, this list also includes those monuments in Maine that have been deprived of an earlier NHL award.
