Cultural Landscape Preservation

It’s already the end of May, which means that Preservation Month is coming to a close. Here are just a few ways to continue exploring cultural landscape preservation in the National Park Service:

• Timeline of Cultural Landscape Preservation, 1850-Present 

• Guidance Documents and Cultural Landscape Report Collections: 

You can also find access to the Integrated Resource Management Applications (IRMA) Portal there, an NPS-wide repository for documents, publications, and data sets related to natural and cultural resources of the National Park Service. The cultural landscape documents in this growing collection contain history, analysis, and treatment recommendations to support the management of cultural landscapes.

• Cultural landscape video collection from the Olmsted Center for Landscape Preservation 

These videos highlight preservation projects in various park cultural landscapes, revealing how management documents (like Cultural Landscape Reports) guide preservation treatment that can impact the experience of historic places.

• The National Park Service & Historic Preservation 

Keep celebrating preservation all year!
