Eritrea accepted the UNESCO World Heritage Convention on October 24, 2001.
Its sole inscribed site, Asmara: A Modernist City of Africa, reflects the country’s emphasis on cultural heritage, showcasing early 20th‑century modernist urban planning and architecture under Italian colonial rule. Eritrea’s Tentative List includes cultural landscapes such as Qohaito.
