The Wounded Knee National Historic Landmark, known also as Wounded Knee, was the site of the Wounded Knee Massacre of 1890 in South Dakota, United States. Along with all other National Historic Landmarks, it was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places, when that program was inaugurated in 1966. It is listed as "Wounded Knee Battlefield". The National Historic Landmark nomination was drafted in 1990, and a consultation with Indian representatives was then arranged.
