This tagging scheme collides with the more commonly used historic=*. In general, this tag is used in cases where historic=yes would otherwise be used, and the site is a recognized heritage site. Otherwise, one of the other historic=* tags should be used, in combination with heritage=*. In addition, mappers should also set heritage:operator=* to indicate who operates the historic site.
