American Samoa districts (clickable)

This is a list of the buildings, sites, districts, and objects listed on the National Register of Historic Places in American Samoa. There are currently 31 listed sites spread across the three districts of American Samoa. There are no sites listed on the unorganized atoll of Swains Island.


          This National Park Service list is complete through NPS recent listings posted September 13, 2024.[1]

Numbers of listings

The following are approximate tallies of current listings in American Samoa on the National Register of Historic Places. These counts are based on entries in the National Register Information Database as of April 24, 2008[2] and new weekly listings posted since then on the National Register of Historic Places web site.[3] There are frequent additions to the listings and occasional delistings and the counts here are not official. 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.

Aasu An armed confrontation between Samoans and French explorers from Lapérouse's expedition on this site in 1787 led to the deaths of 12 Frenchmen. News of the incident gave Samoans a reputation for ferocity among Europeans and deterred foreign intervention in Samoa for about a century. The French government placed a memorial at the site in 1883.[7]
