heritage area
.. might fit here while "monument" seems slightly off the mark (a historic town/city centre as a whole can hardly be a monument to someone or something).

monument
Perhaps you can just translate as monument - although literally would be memorial + monument.

extended monument
...
I was also thinking "horizontal monument" but technically it is both horizontal and vertical
