National Treasures

National Treasures are a portfolio of nationally significant historic places where the National Trust is taking direct action. With the support of thousands of local preservationists and preservation professionals from coast to coast, the National Trust is identifying endangered National Treasures and taking action to save them. Together, we’re raising needed funds, building coalitions to prevent demolition, fighting in the courts to save sites from deterioration, and making sure that the icons of the past remain with us in the future.

This May, our Preservation Month theme is “People Saving Places” to shine the spotlight on everyone doing the work of saving places—in big ways and small—and inspiring others to do the same!

Celebrate!
