Managed by the National Park Service, the monument preserves the site of the 1969 Stonewall Uprising at the Stonewall Inn. The monument includes Christopher Park and surrounding streets where historic protests occurred that catalyzed the fight for LGBTQ equality. It serves as the first national monument dedicated to LGBTQ rights and history in the United States.
