In honor of Women’s History Month, the National Trust for Historic Preservation highlights nine historic sites where women made significant contributions, including two HAHS sites.

Women have shaped the United States in countless ways, yet only a fraction of mainstream culture recognizes their ever-present role in history. The National Trust for Historic Preservation is committed to sharing those stories through our Where Women Made History program, and have throughout the years, documented and shared the stories of remarkable individuals who have made a difference. Below is a list of nine women—and the places where they lived and worked—whose talents and accomplishments are worth further recognition.
