This is a List of National Historic Landmarks in Maryland. There are currently 76
National Historic Landmarks (NHLs) in Maryland. Also included are short lists of former NHLs and of other historic sites of national importance administered by the National Park Service.

Current NHLs
The NHLs are distributed over 17 of
Maryland's 23 counties and its one county-equivalent, the independent city of Baltimore.
For consistency, places are listed by their National Historic Landmark program names.
Historic areas of the NPS in Maryland
National Historical Parks, some National Monuments, and certain other
areas listed in the National Park system are historic landmarks of national importance that are highly protected already, often before the inauguration of the NHL program in 1960, and are then often not also named NHLs ''per se''. The National Park Service lists these together with the NHLs in the state.
[These are listed on p.112-113 of "National Historic Landmarks Survey: List of National Historic Landmarks by State", November 2007 version.]
