Registration

Finlay avenue

Places in the Victorian Heritage Register are considered to have 'state-wide' cultural heritage significance.

Anyone can nominate a place or object to the Victorian Heritage Register using the prescribed nomination form(PDF 120kb).

There are many important places and objects in Victoria, but only a small percentage of them will meet the criteria of the Heritage Council of Victoria.

Many heritage places are locally significant and it is often more appropriate that they be protected by inclusion in local council heritage overlays.
