Italy has the richest experience in working with architectural heritage. The current state of the studied area in Italy shows the successful approaches and the high-quality management policy, which made it possible to expand the country's tourist potential to the highest level in Europe without threatening the existence of monuments. Italian legislation allowed to expand and streamline cooperation between the government and regions in heritage preservation field.

Public-private partnership in this field and the organization of public-private funds are also an effective attempt of state and private cooperation.
