World Heritage Sites

Italy hosts 50 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, more than any other country. The Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage adopted by the UNESCO General Assembly on November 16, 1972 indicates the same organisation as the official designator of these sites. The 50 sites have all been destinations for all those seeking history, art, and culture in the Belpaese. Renewed efforts by the institutions to preserve these sites include a call to learn more about them. Here you can embark on a virtual journey among some of the most fascinating of them, evoking an experience rich in life, passion and dreams. Twelve of these sites are within a 3-hour drive from Poggio ai Santi
