27. Following a survey of ownership carried out in the late 1960s, ownership of the totality of the walls was vested in1973 in the Spanish State, through the Ministry of Education and Science. It was transferred to the Xunta deGalicia by Royal Decree in 1994.

The Spanish Constitution reserves certain rights in relation to the heritage to the central government. However,these are delegated to the competent agencies in the Autonomous Communities, in this case the Xunta deGalicia. For the Lugo walls the Xunta is in the position of both owner and competent agency. Under the GalicianHeritage Law the Xunta is required to cooperate with the municipal authorities in ensuring the protection andconservation of listed monuments, and certain functions are delegated down to them. The Xunta operatesthrough its General Directorate of Cultural Heritage (Dirección General de Patrimonio Cultural), based in Santiagode Compostela.

The Master Plan for the Conservation and Restoration of the Roman Walls of Lugo (1992) covered proposals foractions to be taken in respect of research and techniques of restoration. This was followed in 1997 by the SpecialPlan for the Protection and Internal Reform of the Fortified Enceinte of the Town of Lugo, which is concernedprincipally with the urban environment of the historic town. However, it has a direct impact on the protectionafforded to the walls, in terms of traffic planning, the creation of open spaces, and regulation of building heights.Another planning instrument which affects the walls is the Special Plan for the Protection of the Miño [river],approved by the municipality at the beginning of 1998.

There is at the present time no management plan sensu stricto for the walls in operation in Lugo: work iscontinuing on the basis of the 1992 plan. Nor is there a technical unit specifically responsible for the

http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/&order=country 31/33

conservation and restoration of the walls. It is against this background that serious consideration is being givento the creation of an independent foundation, under royal patronage and with representatives from government,academic, voluntary, and business institutions, to work with the General Directorate of Cultural Heritage ofGalicia. The work plan of this body would include the development and implementation of integratedconservation, restoration, and maintenance programmes.

28. The WH area is managed directly by the Divisional Forest Officer from the Forest Dept. A national steering

Committee co-ordinates institutions for Sinharaja as a National Wilderness Area, Biosphere Reserve (1988),

and WH site. There are two management plans, prepared in 1985/86 and 1992/94, which emphasise

conservation, scientific research, buffer zone management, benefit-sharing, and community participation.

29. (renomination under cultural criteria)

30. In 1979, the Committee decided to inscribe the Ohrid Lake on the World Heritage List under natural criteria (iii). In1980, this property was extended to include the cultural and historical area, and cultural criteria (i)(iii)(iv) wereadded.

31. The “Hadrian’s Wall” which was previously inscribed on the World Heritage List, is part of the transnationalproperty “Frontiers of the Roman Empire”.
