World Heritage Sites
in the Nordic Region

Heritage is something that is passed on from earlier generations and what we pass on to future generations. Cultural heritage, as well as natural heritage, is an irreplaceable source of knowledge, pleasure and inspiration for all peoples; and is our most important point of reference with regard to who we are, and where we come from.

 

In the Nordic region there are more than 40 sites listed as World Heritage sites.
