Portugal ratified the UNESCO World Heritage Convention on 30 September 1980, and its inscriptions feature both cultural and natural sites.
Cultural nominations commonly explore medieval and Renaissance architecture, monastic and urban heritage, traditional vineyard landscapes, and maritime-era monuments. The Laurisilva of Madeira represents the country’s sole natural listing, highlighting a relict laurel forest ecosystem.
