If you accept such pictures, they will also be hard to categorize, so they
won't be that much usefull either.

Why not usefull? We have articles on almost all Swedish cities and villages and pictures of buildings are valuable to the project as a whole. And there are adequate geographical categories on Commons.

We also have protected ships, and other types of monuments (such as statues, and ancient monuments).

In the Netherlands we explicitely decided to have the competition only with
'state monuments'. In the Netherlands there is also the concept of local
monuments, but that is completely unstructured, so not clear what falls
under it, some municiples don't work with numbers, and a lot of lists are
not really published.

If you accept such pictures, they will also be hard to categorize, so they
won't be that much usefull either.
