The Andalusian Institute of Historical Heritage (IAPH) was created in 1989 by the Andalusian government to contribute to the development of regional culture policies, with a comprehensive, multidisciplinary view of its heritage.

As a Public Agency since 2007 and a certified research institute since 2011, the IAPH contributes to the production and transfer of innovative knowledge on heritage and helps direct cultural policies as a smart development and growth factor in Andalusia.

Consolidated as a specialised centre of note in the national and international sphere, it plays a central role in heritage thanks to its multifaceted nature.
