Overview
Historic preservation is the practice of protecting and conserving buildings, objects, landscapes, and other artifacts of historical significance. This endeavor seeks to maintain the cultural heritage of cities and communities, ensuring that future generations can appreciate and learn from the past. With the help of organizations like the [[national-trust-for-historic-preservation|National Trust for Historic Preservation]] and the [[international-council-on-monuments-and-sites|International Council on Monuments and Sites]], historic preservation has become a global movement.
