By sites ranked by country, Italy and China is home to the greatest number of World Heritage Sites with (55) sites each, Spain (48), Germany (46) and France (44). UNESCO references each World Heritage Site with an identification number; but new inscriptions often include previous sites now listed as part of larger descriptions.

While each World Heritage Site remains part of the legal territory of the state wherein the site is located, UNESCO considers it in the interest of the international community to preserve each site.
