The World Heritage List in Brazil, specifically classified by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), is prepared according to ten main criteria and the points are judged by experts in the area. Of all Latin America, the country with the most assets is Mexico, with 31, followed by Brazil, which occupies the second position with 23 assets in total. 15 cultural, 7 natural and 1 mixed.
After the inclusion of the cultural landscape of Rio de Janeiro, on July 1, 2012, Brazil reached the total of 23 sites or groups considered World Heritage in the country. After that there was Paraty and Ilha Grande and the Sítio Roberto Burle Marx. All of them are described below, based on the official UNESCO names, their location, the division between cultural property and natural property and an additional section with the information that UNESCO itself published on its official website.

host city
Located in the state of Minas Gerais, the city of Ouro Preto is an important testament to Brazil’s historical and cultural wealth, especially the expressive Baroque style that marked the colonial period. Founded in the early 18th century, during the golden age of gold mining, Ouro Preto played a central role in Brazil’s colonial economy and society. The discovery of rich gold deposits in the region attracted a significant number of merchants, adventurers, settlers and slaves, who rapidly transformed the urban and social landscape of the area. The rapid development of this area, due to the meeting of different social groups, resulted in the formation of a unique city, characterized by its narrow and winding streets, colonial mansions and Baroque churches that make up an integral ensemble that marks the cultural and natural landscape of the environment.
Therefore, the height of mining activity in Ouro Preto coincided with the flourishing of Baroque architecture in Brazil. The churches and public buildings built during this period reflect not only the opulence and power of the mining elite, but also the artistic expression and spirituality of the time. Notable among these buildings are the Basilica of Our Lady of Pilar, known for its wealth of gold, and the magnificent Church of Saint Francis of Assisi, a masterpiece by master Aleijadinho. In addition to its architectural legacy, Ouro Preto also played a fundamental role in the political and cultural scenario of colonial Brazil. It was the scene of important historical events, such as the Inconfidência Mineira of 1789, which marked the struggle for independence. Today, Ouro Preto is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, due to its exceptional historical and cultural importance. The preservation of its architectural and cultural heritage is a priority for local and national authorities, ensuring that future generations can preserve, learn from and give new meaning to our cultural heritage.
