841 CU - San Pedro de la Roca Castle, Santiago de Cuba (1997)

Brief Description

"Commercial and political rivalries in the Caribbean region in the 17th century resulted in the construction of this massive series of fortifications on a rocky promontory, built to protect the important port of Santiago. This intricate complex of forts, magazines, bastions and batteries is the most complete, best-preserved example of Spanish-American military architecture, based on Italian and Renaissance design principles."

古巴圣地亚哥的圣佩德罗德拉罗卡堡

"17世纪，加勒比海地区商业和政治竞争促使人们在坚如岩石的海岬上修建了这一规模庞大的防御工事，用以保护重要港口圣地亚哥。 这一复杂的建筑群是根据意大利文艺复兴原理设计的，包括有堡垒、军火库、棱堡和炮台，是西班牙裔美洲人的军事建筑中保存最完整、最好的一个。"

904 RO - Wooden Churches of Maramureş (1999)

Brief Description

"These eight churches are outstanding examples of a range of architectural solutions from different periods and areas. They show the variety of designs and craftsmanship adopted in these narrow, high, timber constructions with their characteristic tall, slim clock towers at the western end of the building, either single- or double-roofed and covered by shingles. As such, they are a particular vernacular expression of the cultural landscape of this mountainous area of northern Romania."

1240 HR - Stari Grad Plain (2008)

Brief Description

"Stari Grad Plain on the Adriatic island of Hvar is a cultural landscape that has remained practically intact since it was first colonized by Ionian Greeks from Paros in the 4th century BC. The original agricultural activity of this fertile plain, mainly centring on grapes and olives, has been maintained since Greek times to the present. The site is also a natural reserve. The landscape features ancient stone walls and trims, or small stone shelters, and bears testimony to the ancient geometrical system of land division used by the ancient Greeks, the chora which has remained virtually intact over 24 centuries."
