National Register Sign Program
The Montana Historical Society's National Register property signs encourage locals and tourists to stop and learn about Montana's rich and colorful heritage, inspire others to seek Register listing, and promote historic preservation. If you own or represent a property that is listed in the National Register of Historic Places, the Montana Historical Society invites you to purchase a National Register sign. Signs cost from $35 to $62 each (see details below).
Each National Register sign includes a special logo and brief description of the property's historic significance. Since the program began in 1990, nearly 1,800 National Register signs have been placed across Montana. Montanans and visitors have come to recognize that a Montana National Register sign marks a place important to the history of our state. This is the only official sign program for the State of Montana and the only one that includes interpretive text detailing the history of your property.

The Historic Montana website and companion app take you on a virtual tour of selected buildings, neighborhoods, and cultural sites listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Historic Montana's abundant content is reproduced from the thousands of interpretive signs placed at properties across the state to enhance knowledge of historic places and promote historic preservation.
