%X this article analyzes a series of examples of intervention in spanish mining heritage, with the purpose of preserving this patrimony, while its cultural and touristic development takes place at the same time. to understand how it has been possible that the society assumed the patrimonial value of this industrial heritage, the evolution of the concept of heritage and landscape is briefly explained, analyzing the changes produced in both concepts and raising that the mining patrimony finds it real sense of existence based on the new idea of landscape following the definition included in the convention of florence. this is due to the specific characteristics of mining heritage, which on one hand distinguish it as unique within the field of industrial heritage, but on the other hand, imply that new models and concepts of musealization are needed. the mining park of rio tinto (province of huelva, andaluc¨ªa) and the mining park of almad¨¦n (province of ciudad real, castilla-la mancha) are the examples here analyzed, for which the landscape and the relation with human activities have been the axes of their musealization and touristic development, while the mining landscape of ojos negros has been turned into a scenery for contemporary artistic activities, creating a different way of intervening in this landscape and of promoting its recovery for society.
