The duty of conservation of immovable cultural properties and the compensation derived from its singular linkage. Incidence of Land Register

Abstract

The duty of conservation of immovable cultural properties, has traditionally been considered a pivotal element within historical heritage regulation and land use and zoning law. The consequences of this duty to its owner or rights´ holder translates into an additional economic burden that, in certain cases, should be subsidized by the Public Administration, due to a singular linkage of the properties. To that extent, the Land Register´s role will be crucial in order to legally protect owners and potential third-party acquirers, conserving not only the property but also ensuring compliance of all remaining rights and obligations legally recognized.
