Nationalt historisk vartegn
I USA er et National Historic Landmark ( National Historic Site ) et sted, der officielt anses for at have historisk betydning af nationalt omfang. I 2003 var de mindre end 2.500, eller ca. 4% af de steder, der er opført i National Register of Historic Places . Det nationale historiske landemærke er faktisk ikke beskyttede monumenter: Føderal lovgivning giver ingen ejer nogen forpligtelse. På den anden side kan føderal støtte ledsages af forskellige udviklingsforpligtelser. Lokale myndigheder kan også træffe foranstaltninger til bevarelse af vartegn .
Valg af placeringer
Det nationale historiske landemærke vælges af indenrigsministeren efter råd fra National Park Service , som er ansvarlig for forvaltningen af steder. De steder, der sandsynligvis vil blive valgt, er:
- dem, hvor nationale historiske begivenheder har fundet sted
- dem, hvor berømte mennesker boede eller arbejdede;
- dem, der legemliggør idealerne, der formede nationen;
- bemærkelsesværdige konstruktioner;
- de steder, der karakteriserer en bestemt livsstil;
- arkæologiske steder rig på information.
I samarbejde med borgerne udarbejder National Historic Landmarks-programmet sine projekter under ekspertisen fra National Park Service, som er ansvarlig for at udvælge nye monumenter og vedligeholde eksisterende historiske monumenter.
Der er også en forening, National Historic Landmark Stewards Association , der arbejder for at bevare, beskytte og fremme disse historiske monumenter.
