List of World Heritage Sites in Romania

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage Sites are places of importance to cultural or natural heritage as described in the UNESCO World Heritage Convention, established in 1972. Cultural heritage consists of monuments (such as architectural works, monumental sculptures, or inscriptions), groups of buildings, and sites (including archaeological sites). Natural features (consisting of physical and biological formations), geological and physiographical formations (including habitats of threatened species of animals and plants), and natural sites which are important from the point of view of science, conservation or natural beauty, are defined as natural heritage. Romania accepted the convention on 16 May 1990, making its historical sites eligible for inclusion on the list.
, there are eight World Heritage Sites in Romania, six of which are cultural sites and two are natural. The first site in Romania, the Danube Delta, was added to the list at the 15th Session of the World Heritage Committee, held in Carthage, Tunisia, in 1990. Further sites were added in 1993 and 1999 and some of the sites were subsequently expanded. The most recent site added to the list were the Ancient and Primeval Beech Forests of the Carpathians and Other Regions of Europe, in 2017, as an extension to the transnational site originally listed in 2007. This site is shared with 11 countries. In addition, there are 17 sites on Romania's tentative list.
