Built in the 1730s
Georgia was chartered in 1732 and settled at Savannah the next year, the last of the thirteen colonies. The Great Awakening began in the Connecticut Valley and spread after George Whitefield started preaching in the colonies. Newspapers and printing shops multiplied in the larger ports.
79 places on the National Register have a construction year in the 1730s on record. They stand in 20 states and territories. Of those, 6 are National Historic Landmarks.
Construction years come from Wikidata, matched on National Register reference number. Only plain four-digit years are counted, so a place recorded as circa or as a range is left out. Data refreshed November 02, 2026.
