Mount Rushmore and the National Park Service

The National Park Service is tasked with preserving, protecting, and sharing our nation's special places. Mount Rushmore is granite and the maintenance of the Rushmore memorial requires annual monitoring, cleaning, and sealing.  

In 2016, the National Park Service and our nation marked the 75th Anniversary of the completion of Mount Rushmore.

The Mount Rushmore National Memorial visitor facilities are open all year, seven days a week. The one exception is December 25th.

Every night, Mount Rushmore gets illuminated for a couple of hours.
