Perched on Mount Titano and surrounded on all sides by the country of Italy, San Marino is a small republic with a big history. The San Marino historic center and Mount Titano gained UNESCO World Heritage Status in 2008. As one of the oldest continuing republics in the world and the only surviving intact Italian city-state, its historic contributions to the development of democracy have been profound.

Documents related to the World Heritage Site of San Marino are available at UNESCO.
