About Pullman
Pullman National Monument preserves the historic planned industrial town built by railroad car magnate George Pullman in the 1880s. The site represents a significant example of 19th-century industrial paternalism and urban planning, as well as the birthplace of the modern American labor movement following the Pullman Strike of 1894. The monument includes the historic Pullman factory, worker housing, and community buildings that tell the story of American industrial and labor history. It is managed by the National Park Service.
