The Management Plan is the strategic tool provided for by the UNESCO Operational Guidelines to ensure the protection, conservation, and enhancement of the Historic Center of Naples, inscribed on the World Heritage List since 1995.
It is a programmatic and operational document that:
defines objectives and actions to preserve the Outstanding Universal Value recognized in the site;
• coordinates policies and interventions between the municipality, public bodies, cultural institutions, and the local community;
• ensures constant monitoring of the state of conservation;
• promotes sustainable use and active participation by citizens.
The Plan is open and updatable: it can be modified at any time to adapt to the new needs and conditions of the historic center, always maintaining the preservation of tangible and intangible heritage as a priority.
The plan is divided into three main parts:
Part A – Fundamentals, analysis, and projects
This part contains the strategic vision, context analysis, and projects that translate methodological choices for protection and enhancement into concrete actions.
Part B – Further information
This part brings together studies, research, and detailed data that support and expand on the contents of Part A.
Part C – Appendices
This part includes reference documents, maps, technical data sheets, and materials that are useful for reading the entire Plan independently.
