ICOMOS advisory mission to the World Heritage site of Seville


Cathedral, Alcázar and Archivo de Indias in Seville

From 7 to 9 November 2011, experts from the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) undertook an advisory mission to examine development projects affecting the World Heritage site "Cathedral, Alcázar and Archivo de Indias in Sevilla", inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List in 1987.

At its three last sessions, the World Heritage Committee discussed the state of conservation of the site and has requested the State Party "to halt the construction works and reconsider the current high-rise project in order to avoid any possible adverse impact on the Outstanding Universal Value of the property" (35 COM 7B.110).
