Sumario:Both the preservation of the architectural heritage and the physical, sensorial and intellectual and communicational accessibility are recognized as Human Rights. When a person or group finds their ability to access, use and enjoy certain spaces conditioned, their rights are violated. This mainly affects people with disabilities, the elderly, pregnant people, girls or boys and has an impact on everyone's life, because no one is exempt from needing accessibility conditions at some point in life. However, guaranteeing it in protected buildings is not as simple as in a new building and the legislation plays an important role that needs to be analyzed. In the case of Argentina, and particularly of the city of Mar del Plata, large legal gaps and a notable lack of articulation between the themes are detected, which impacts on the material reality of its protected buildings. The objective of this research is to review and contribute to this legal framework from a rights perspective to turn it into a tool in accordance with current paradigms, with a disability perspective and a gender perspective. In this way, it seeks to contribute to protecting the values ​​of goods and democratizing their access at the same time, through a mainly qualitative methodology, compiling and critically studying a selection of standards that address the binomial accessibility and heritage on an international, national and local scale.
