(Fortress in Smederevo)

Within the framework of the UNESCO regional program for cultural heritage of southeast Europe "Cultural Heritage - Bridge to the Joint Future", our Ministry of Culture has started realization of the "Fortress on the Danube" project. The aim of this pilot project is development of the road of culture, which should connect local communities on the Danube - Bač, Novi Sad, Belgrade, Smederevo, Golubac, Veliko Gradište and Kladovo - into one whole. These cities have representative fortresses and fortified towns on the Danube.

The project consists of three segments. The first is organization of educational workshops and conference "Fortresses on the Danube - Opportunities and Challenges", the second is raising awareness among local communities of the values and significance of cultural heritage, and the third is creation of its Internet presentation.

Workshops in Bač and Novi Sad have been held within the scope of the training program, while, in addition to the ones that will be held in Smederevo and Belgrade, other workshops are expected as well.

"Cultural Heritage - Bridge to the Joint Future" is the international initiative coordinated by UNESCO and supported by Italian Government, with the aim of strengthening regional cooperation in field of protection and promotion of cultural heritage in southeast Europe. Its preliminary assumptions lie in the understanding of heritage as joint value: as the bridge between the cultures and communities, between the past, the present and the future, as the bridge that offers the possibility of constructive cooperation, with the aim of strengthening intercultural dialogue, support to human and economic development and further stabilization of the region.
