SEFRAK is an acronym for Secretariat for the registration of immovable cultural heritage monuments, which was the name of the institution that started working on the register. Today the responsibility for the registration and maintenance of the data lies with the Directorate for Cultural Heritage. All buildings built before 1900 are supposed to be registered, except ruins.
