To be included in the
Canadian Register of Historic Places, a site must first have been
designated at the municipal, provincial or national level. To
obtain a municipal or provincial designation, contact our provincial and
territorial partners to find out about the designation
procedure in your location. To obtain designation as a national
historic site, consult the section on Applying for Designation on the Historic Sites
and Monuments Board of Canada Web site.

or photos from the Canadian Register of Historic Places
site
Consult our
Important Notices page to find out how you can use Canadian

I want to renovate
a historic place
The legislation and regulations
protecting historic places differ from province to province and
depending on the site's designation. Before undertaking any
renovation work on a historic place, contact our provincial and
territorial partners to find out about the legislation and
regulations in force in your province or territory.
Then consult the Standards and Guidelines
for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada in order
to make sound decisions with regard to planning for and using a
historic place.
