THEmatic Transnational church Route development with the Involvement of local Society
Central Europe needs to sustain and transform a wide range of cultural heritage through innovative investment in projects with a lasting impact on regions and people. Churches and sacral architecture play a significant role especially in rural areas, as these monumental buildings need large scale investments, play a very important role for local communities and attract tourists. Transnational cooperation projects can help regions to look for long-term strategies for preservation and sustainable exploitation of cultural heritage and raising awareness of local actors.

The strategies for the preservation of churches as well as raising awareness about preservation of sacral architecture are in the focus of the project THETRIS. Its partners also intend to explore innovative ways of improving cultural heritage tourism and issue recommendation for other European regions.
