The Salt Valley of Añana (Salinas de Añana, Basque Country, Spain) is one of the most spectacular and best preserved inland saltworks. Its value not only lies in its particular architecture or on its almost 6.000 years of documented history, or even in its geological features, biodiversity or landscape values, but in the union in perfect harmony of all of it in a privileged context. The awareness by both government and society of the importance of the Valley has led to the heritage and environmental protection of the saltworks. They have been protected on the Spanish heritage register since 1984; as a cultural landscape the Valley is a candidate World Heritage Site of UNESCO , and in 2002 it was listed under the Ramsar Convention as a wetland site of international importance
