Butte Citizens for Preservation and Revitalization is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the many historic buildings of Butte, Montana - the largest historic landmark district in the nation.

Butte CPR works to preserve historic buildings by awarding grants; conducting educational tours, workshops, and lectures; providing volunteer labor; and serving as a preservation advocate with local government, business, and civic groups.

Since its founding in 1994, Butte CPR has had a positive impact on dozens of buildings, both residential and commercial.

The Butte-Silver Bow Public Archives was established in 1981 to meet the growing need of a place to house Butte, Montana’s historical documents. The mission of the Archives is to maintain the non-current government record of Butte-Silver Bow as well as historical photographs and manuscripts relating to Butte’s history. We provide public access to our collections, work with educators to connect students with their local history, and provide service to the preservation community of Butte-Silver Bow.

The local historic preservation program promotes the preservation of historic resources throughout the city-county of Butte-Silver Bow. The Historic Preservation Commission (HPC) in cooperation with the local historic preservation office, identifies, evaluates, and protects historic and prehistoric resources with the city and county as well as providing general information and education about these resources.
