Today, the organization helps to protect and rebuild the most important places from our history.However, one of the biggest problems for historic places is vandalism. That is to say, people sometimes enter these places and damage the buildings. At some places, such as Stonehenge in England, governments have built high fences to protect it from vandals.There are many different ideas about how to solve the problem of vandalism.
