I am currently porting WikiShootMe to Labs:

http://tools.wmflabs.org/wikishootme/

It fulfils #2, 3, and 5 of your list. 4 can be added rather quickly.

As for #1, I believe it's easy. As it is, it shows all articles without
images around a given point. A small fork could be limited to the monuments
list.

Will take a few days, as I only have evenings to work on this (and all my
other tools); Labs makes it easy to add interested programmers, so if
anyone wants to help...

Cheers,
Magnus
