List of National Historic Landmarks in Michigan

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The list of National Historic Landmarks in Michigan records the historical objects and places that are classified as National Historic Landmarks ( NHL ; German: National Historic Landmark ) in the American state of Michigan and are under the supervision of the National Park Service (NPS). It highlights its particular national importance from the multitude of other cultural monuments in the United States' National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The award is presented by the United States Department of the Interior .

The second part of this list includes other objects that - like landmarks - have historical significance for the USA as a whole beyond Michigan: National Historic Sites , National Historical Parks , National Memorials and some other institutions are areas, landmarks or memorials in the USA who received the award not from the Home Office, but directly through laws of Congress or orders of the President . Such historical monuments are usually also under the protection of the National Park Service, but they have usually not been declared in addition to the NHL; often their protection status was granted before the Landmarks Program was introduced in 1960. These facilities are listed by the National Park Service on the Michigan NHL list.

In the third section, those monuments in Michigan are listed, which an earlier award as NHL was withdrawn.
