Abstract
Archaeological heritage sites constitute an important factor for the economic and social life of many countries, the development policy came to emphasize the safeguard and the preservation of landscapes and natural or fabricated sites, against the attacks, which have impoverished the cultural heritage, this heritage which represents a historic imprint for future generations. In a world where tourism has become the leading industry on the market, sustainable tourism has found its place as a major player through the network of Internet travelers. Welcome, solidarity and conviviality are the order of the day, giving meaning to sharing. This «extra soul» has the capacity to enrich moments, places, attractions and heritage. Algeria contains archaeological sites, which are classified as world cultural heritage by UNESCO. Unfortunately, reality shows that most of these sites are left to deteriorate without any real intervention. Through this research work, it is a question of examining the problem of integrating the conservation and enhancement of archaeological sites in the context of producing sustainable tourism for the city of Annaba and for Algeria.
