Chilean UNESCO World Heritage Sites

Chile accepted the UNESCO convention on 20 February 1980, making its sites eligible for inclusion on the list. There are seven World Heritage Sites in Chile, and a further 18 sites on its tentative list. The first site added to the list was the Rapa Nui National Park, which was listed in 1995. The most recent site listed was the Settlement and Artificial Mummification of the Chinchorro Culture in the Arica and Parinacota Region in 2021. All sites in Chile are listed for their cultural significance. Qhapaq Ñan, Andean Road System is a transnational site and is shared with Argentina, Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Humberstone and Santa Laura Saltpeter Works was listed as endangered between 2005 (immediately upon the listing) and 2019 because of the vulnerable state of the buildings. Chile has served on the World Heritage Committee once.
