Welcome to Heritage NSW
Explore the Aboriginal, environmental, built and archaeological heritage of NSW and learn how to protect, celebrate and conserve it.
A team of people across NSW, working together to protect, manage and celebrate NSW heritage.
Our heritage is the places, objects and stories that we as a community have inherited from the past and want to protect for future generations.
Identifying and listing items of heritage significance are the first steps in protecting and managing those places and objects that we as a community want to keep.
Here you can search the State Heritage Inventory, the Aboriginal Heritage Information Management System, the Maritime Heritage Database, the Heritage NSW Digital Library and find heritage related services, products and publications.
Find out if you need a permit to complete works to your heritage place or object, if you qualify for an exemption, and how to make an application.
Our grants program helps owners, custodians, managers and communities to recognise, value and care for heritage.
Celebrating our heritage keeps communities together, passes on values, traditions, and meanings through the different generations. The celebration of Heritage keeps it alive.
