Management of the UNESCO site is coordinated by departments under the State (DREAL-DRAC), as stakeholder in the World Heritage Convention, and Mission Val de Loire, as head of the network and crossroads for actors involved in the listed site’s management.

State (DREAL- DRAC)

The State’s regional departments are involved in overall management of the UNESCO site – the State being responsible for international conventions – and, more specifically, in their activity sectors. 

Action on the part of DRAC bears on archaeology, preservation and promotion of urban and landscape heritage, protection and restoration of historical monuments, and promotion of architectural and garden creation. 

Action on the part of DREAL bears on preservation of landscapes and biodiversity, sustainable spatial planning, urban development in particular, and flood-risk management as regards the Loire and its tributaries.
