10 national sites and monuments where U.S. history was made
Belmont-Paul Women’s Equality National Monument – Washington, D.C.
President Barack Obama designated this a national monument on April 12, 2016, making it only the second national monument to specifically commemorate women’s history. For 90 years, the National Woman’s Party made this house, in the shadow of the U.S. Capitol, its headquarters.
It was from here that Alice Paul and the other members of the organization helped secure passage of the 19th amendment, granting women the right to vote.
