I am all for saving history no matter how good or bad it is or how uncomfortable it makes you.
That said this was just a place for rich fucks to get married in the bygone South. Fuck it let it burn, this monument to hate. I might feel different if it was used to teach people about how mankind can be so cruel as to profit off the blood and lives of others but it wasn't so good riddance.
