The old Town of Corfu was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2007. The idea behind the World Heritage list is to help sites of historical or cultural importance to be preserved and protected for future generations to appreciate.
The Old Town is cited as a well-preserved example of a fortified Mediterranean port town noted for its medieval and later forts, streets and buildings. The Ancient Greek city at Butrinto nearby in Albania is also on the list and together with Corfu Town these two local heritage sites will help to remind visitors of the historical importance of the region from ancient times onwards.
