Abstract
In 2019 the OPAC (Portuguese Observatory on Cultural Activities) conducted a pioneer study about the Portuguese National Monuments, a specific type of legally protected built heritage. The focus of this study was to survey the public fruition of these buildings, a heritage valorization policy, using a quantitative methodological approach, to be broken down in statistical analysis. Along with public fruition, management systems, beneficiation works, human resources and visitors were also observed, and this study’s results are a major contribution for the knowledge of Cultural Heritage statistics in Portugal, and a first approach to promote a wider project in this field.
