Thank you.

I believe/hope it's just a matter of time.

True.

Probably on
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Cultural_heritage

We started a
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_France/Monuments_historiques
for France, maybe other countries should start one too since every country
is different.

This porject is mad (in a good way).
I lack time but that could be a great idea to do the same for monuments !

My original mail in this thread is about moving the monuments db which is

Sadly this project seems a bit dead...

Plus, for France, as we started the import semi-automatically and
semi-manually, it's now harder for the bots to import the last half of
french monuments :s

We need to split that up and move it to Wikidata in all its bits and bobs.
