Summary

The theme for the International Day on Monuments and Sites in 2014 is “Heritage of Commemoration”. Monuments and sites, including those more complex and diversified forms of heritage places such as living landscapes, are tangible carriers of the memory of a part of the human experience. Thus, through their authenticity and integrity, they contribute, in their way, to the commemoration and transmission of values which include history.
