Spain's cultural heritage, an internationally recognised treasure

Spain's cultural heritage is one of the most extensive in the world. It is the country with the fourth highest number of tangible and
intangible assets recognised by UNESCO, and making culture an essential public good is one of the main focuses for the Spanish
Presidency of the Council of the European Union.

At the informal ministerial meeting to be held in Cáceres on 25 to 26 September, EU culture ministers will discuss sustainable
management of cultural heritage, universal access to culture and its role as the territory’s backbone. Furthermore, during the meeting,
the ministers are expected to agree to sign the ‘Cáceres Declaration’, a commitment to defending culture through common public
policies.

Spain, a land of heritage

The UNESCO World Heritage List represents a commitment to conserving listed tangible and intangible assets, and the organisation
has a responsibility to ensure that these are maintained. It also implies that these assets belong to all humanity and it is everyone's
task to protect and preserve them over time so that future generations can also enjoy them.

What criteria does the organisation use to determine which assets become World Heritage ones? Primarily, they must possess

, ‘outstanding universal value’ that transcends borders because of their historical, cultural or natural importance and their significance
for the history of mankind.


Spain has an extensive list of monuments, historic cities, cultural landscapes, archaeological sites, traditions and living expressions that
are classed as World Heritage.

Enhancing these assets is a way of maintaining cultural diversity and of ensuring that traditions, social practices or festive events of the
different populations are passed on, which stimulates exchange and respect between cultures.

In total, Spain has 73 assets included on UNESCO's heritage lists (World Heritage List and Representative List of Intangible Cultural
Heritage). Among them, 50 are cultural and natural assets, such as the Alhambra, the Doñana National Park, the Segovia aqueduct,
Monte Perdido and the Atapuerca archaeological site. The list also includes cities like Toledo, Ávila and Cáceres.

The fifteen Spanish cities with World Heritage status are grouped together in a non-profit association that every September organises
‘Heritage Night’, an evening during which the most emblematic heritage sites and their historic centres are transformed into stages for
cultural activities open to local residents and visitors.

50 cultural and natural assets

20 intangible events

3 good practice projects

The list is rounded off by twenty intangible events, such as bell-ringing carried out by hand, the Mediterranean diet, flamenco or the
Fallas festival, and three good practice projects for safeguarding the intangible heritage recognised by UNESCO.

These good practices allow positive experiences and examples of safeguarding to be shared to ensure that living heritage is passed on
