Carter G. Woodson Home National Historic Site at 1538 9th Street, NW in the Shaw neighborhood of Washington, D.C., preserves the home of Carter G. Woodson (1875–1950). Woodson, the founder of Black History Month, was an African American historian, author, and journalist.

The house was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976. The National Historic Site was authorized by Public Law 108-192 on December 19, 2003, and established by Secretary of the Interior Gale Norton on February 27, 2006. The refurbishment of the home is currently being planned by the National Park Service in partnership with local architecture firm Beyer Blinder Belle.
