Historic Sites Act

The Historic Sites Act, enacted in 1935 in the United States, aims to preserve and protect historically significant sites. It empowers the federal government to designate and manage sites that represent America's cultural heritage, whether they are buildings, landscapes, or other locations of historical importance. The Act encourages public awareness and appreciation of these sites by supporting research, conservation, and educational programs. Essentially, it helps ensure that important parts of history are maintained for future generations to understand and enjoy.
