Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) Pride Month

June is Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Pride Month. LGBT Pride Month is celebrated each year in the month of June to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots in Manhattan. The National Park Service highlights LBGTQ Heritage that encompasses more than just the National Register. We are pleased to promote awareness of and appreciation for the historical accomplishments of the LGBT community. We showcase historic properties listed in the National Register and National Park units commemorating the events and people that help illustrate LGBT contributions to American history.
