Abstract: This study aims to provide an overview of the protection of intangible heritage in Spain from the early 20th century to the present, with a particular focus on Andalusia. As a methodology, an analysis and examination of government initiatives and the evolution of laws safeguarding cultural heritage (both tangible and intangible) in terms of sustainability and the impact of UNESCO international programs have been carried out. Additionally, the document presents Andalusian legislation, compiles protected intangible cultural assets, and provides information on those included in the UNESCO World Heritage list. As a result, both nationally protected intangible assets and those inscribed on the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List have been identified.
