Typologizing Russian regions according to the potential of cultural heritage has been carried out, making it possible to identify five main types of regions on the territory of the Russian Federation that differ in the saturation of the territory with cultural heritage objects, the ratio of identified cultural heritage objects and objects included in the Unified State Register of Cultural Heritage Objects, the specific structure of historical and cultural monuments, the identification of intangible cultural heritage objects and the number of formed and functioning historical and cultural territories

The experience of foreign countries in cultural heritage preservation has been considered. Examples of the most effective use of cultural heritage has been identified, which, on the one hand, contribute to the identification and preservation of this special cultural and economic potential, and, on the other, allow the use of heritage as a driver of modern economy development for historical and cultural territories and historical settlements.
Special attention has been focused on new types of cultural heritage that have appeared in the world circulation in the last two decades (in particular, objects of intangible cultural heritage, industrial heritage, heritage of historical transport routes and roads).
