The South Carolina Historical Marker Program, administered by the South Carolina State Historic Preservation Office, was established in 1936 and is one of the oldest programs of its kind in the nation. With over 2,000 historical markers approved and erected across the state, the program aims to educate the public about South Carolina's rich history through local narratives.

Markers must be sponsored by organizations, as individual sponsorship is not permitted, and applications are accepted on a rolling basis. The program emphasizes community involvement, relying on citizens to propose, document, fund, and maintain these significant markers that illuminate the history of their respective locations.
