The situation above speaks for itself. Years of restoration work gone, as well as the object of the restoration itself. No doubt treasures inside were lost as well. It's very important to make copies of historical material and store it outside the historical structure. ( In fact just about any household would be wise to do something similar. ) And it's important to produce a large number of photographs of a structure. This is easy and inexpensive in year 2007, and could easily become the only record of a structure remaining after some kind of disaster.
