National Memorials of the United States are a list of protected areas commemorating historic persons and/or events related to the United States of America. They do not necessarily need to have the word "national" attached to them to be part of the list of national memorials.

There are presently 28 national memorials in the United States. They are owned and administered by the National Park Service, with another 5 administered by other agencies, but with assistance from the National Park Service. All national memorials within the National Park System are automatically listed on the National Register of Historic Places while not all affiliated areas are.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
