In 1989, The Searchers was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the United States Library of Congress, and selected for preservation in its National Film Registry; it was one of the first 25 films selected for the registry. The film also ranks 12th on AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movies 10th Anniversary Edition list.
