From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

These historic properties and districts in the state of Texas are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Properties and/or districts are listed in most of Texas's 254 counties.

Regions

[edit]

The Texas Historical Commission (THC) defines a partition of the state into ten historic themed regions, each with a suggested driving tour which was originally designed by the Texas Department of Transportation, back in 1968 at the time of Texas' World Fair. The THC produces brochures corresponding to each region highlight most significant historic sites and city-specific concentrations.

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Based on entries in the National Register Information Database as of April 24, 2008 and new weekly listings posted since then on the National Register of Historic Places web site. Frequent additions to the listings and occasional delistings are made, so the counts here are approximate and not official. New entries are added to the official Register on a weekly basis. Also, the counts in this table exclude boundary increase and decrease listings which modify the area covered by an existing property or district and which carry a separate National Register reference number. The numbers of NRHP listings in each county are documented by tables in each of the individual county list-articles.
  2. ^ The following sites are listed in multiple counties:
