Since 1978, UNESCO has been compiling its list of World Heritage Sites, places of historical significance that have been designated as worthy of conservation and protection for the future.
There are now over 1,000 World Heritage Sites, each one a culturally important or geographically remarkable place — a stunning landscape, historic city centre, or recognized landmark or monument of human history.
For International Museum Day, we’ve pulled together a list of sites that are also great museums or which have museums on site.
Here are ten of the best museums you can visit at UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
