The Monuments Men Foundation for the Preservation of Art
The Monuments Men Foundation for the Preservation of Art honors the efforts of a group of World War II soldiers, art experts, and historians who safeguarded cultural treasures from destruction and theft during the war. Founded in 2007, it aims to identify, recover, and return stolen or lost art and heritage. The foundation promotes awareness of the importance of protecting cultural heritage and supports related research, education, and recovery initiatives to ensure that priceless works of art are preserved for future generations.
