Saturn V Dynamic Test Stand, also known as Dynamic Structural Test Facility, is a structure at the George C. Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.

Built in 1964 to conduct mechanical and vibrational tests on the fully assembled Saturn V rocket, major problems capable of causing failure of the vehicle were discovered and corrected here.

It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1985.citation|title=PDFlink| [http://pdfhost.focus.nps.gov/docs/NHLS/Text/85002806.pdf National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination: Saturn V Dynamic Test Stand] |426 KB|date=May 15, 1984 |first=Harry A. |last=Butowsky |publisher=National Park Service and PDFlink| [http://pdfhost.focus.nps.gov/docs/NHLS/Photos/85002806.pdf Accompanying 9 photos, exterior and interior, from 1971, 1974, 1976, 1978, 1980, 1982, and 1984.] |2.30 MB]
