Australian National Heritage List

In the Australian National Heritage List (German: Australian Monument and Nature Conservation List ) Australian cultural and natural monuments are entered, which have special protection according to legal status after an entry. In Australia, the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 applies to culture and nature conservation , a law that emphasizes in particular the protection of the environment, natural heritage and biodiversity . The aim of monument and nature protection is to work for permanent preservation and protection, not to falsify, damage, impair or destroy anything, so that the cultural assets and natural heritage are permanently secured. Entries that are also entered on the UNESCO World Heritage List have the highest priority .

In Australia, the national cultural heritage and natural heritage are listed and entered in different lists, in addition to the lists of world heritage at UNESCO: National Heritage List , Commonwealth Heritage List of the federal states (New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania , Northern Territory, Australian Capital Territory), List of Overseas Places of Historic Significance to Australia (e.g. the ANZAC memorial in Gallipoli ), Register of the National Estate and Australian National Shipwreck Database (shipwrecks on the coasts of Australia).
