$23.4MHistoric sites - the national trust and its partners are the stewards of 27 national trust historic sites which are open to the public. They are a nationally significant collection of historic places that include a wide variety of architectural styles, structures, landscapes, and object collections that bring diverse stories of american history to life. In 2023/2024, the national trust owned and managed 10 of these sites; owned 11 sites (one through a long-term lease) that are managed by independent local organizations; and provided limited support to six other sites that are owned and managed by other entities. These historic sites welcomed over 1,090,000 visitors in 2023/2024. The history, stories, people, collections, architecture, and landscapes of these sites are interpreted to on-site visitors, and through digital programs, social media, websites, and written communication to millions more. The sites serve their communities by providing educational programs, events, and unique gathering places for community residents. The national trust and its partner organizations maintain the sites as good models for historic preservation, collections management, interpretation, and comprehensive stewardship.
