Concerns are rising that the Getty Center art museum and its priceless collection is at risk of being in the path of the Palisades Fire, the largest of 4 fires still burning.
The Palisades Fire is threatening to jump over Interstate 405 into a heavily populated area, DW reports.
Two of the largest fires are only 15% or less contained, with concerns that fierce winds could return in the coming days.
Authorities have said the latest death toll is 24.
Death toll rises to 24
The Los Angeles coroner's daily update has seen the number of deaths attributed to the ongoing wildfires rise to 24.
Of the fatalities, 16 were recorded to be in the Eaton Fire zone, while eight were from the Palisades Fire zone.
Teams with cadaver dogs are continuing to carry out grid searches with the expectation that the death toll will still rise.
Better weather conditions and efforts from firefighters have restricted the spread of the Palisades Fire, which was moving towards Brentwood and the densely populated San Fernando Valley.
However, conditions are due to worsen again, with "extreme fire behavior and life threatening conditions" over the coming days.
With the Palisades Fire now compassing 23,713 acres, it remains just 13% contained.
Winds up to 70 miles (110 kilometers) per hour mean a "particularly dangerous situation" is expected to be declared from early Tuesday, said National Weather Service meteorologist Rose Schoenfeld.
At least 16 people reported missing
At least 16 people are missing as wildfires continue to blaze around Los Angeles.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna said on Sunday that 12 people were missing in the Eaton fire zone and four were missing from the Palisades blaze. None of them were children.
The number of missing people is likely to increase as "dozens" more reports might have come in on Sunday, Luna added.
Investigators were also investigating whether any of the people reported missing had been killed by the wildfires.
Teams from the Sheriff's Department continued sift through the rubble on Sunday using dogs to search for human remains.
Fires blazing on five fronts around Los Angeles
Firefighters battled five separate blazes on Sunday that continued to encroach on Los Angeles.
In an interview with NBC's Meet the Press, California Governor Gavin Newsom said the wildfires could amount to the worst natural disaster in US history.
"I think it will be in terms of just the costs associated with it, in terms of the scale and scope," he said.
Newsom added that he was launching a "Marshall Plan" to rebuild the city.
"We already have a team looking at reimagining LA 2.0," he said.
