National Register Nomination 

The National Register is a federal list of districts, sites, buildings, structures and objects that are significant in American History. 

On July 22, 2020, the City of Monona in conjunction with the Wisconsin State Historical Society hosted a virtual educational session on National Register nomination. This event outlined what National Register status means and the potential benefits of nomination.
