Introduction The International Co-operative Programme on Effects on Materials, including Historic and Cultural Monuments (ICP Materials) was launched in 1985 within the scope and the activities of the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution. The aim of the Programme is to fill some of the major gaps in scientific knowledge in the area of materials corrosion influenced by atmospheric pollutants by performing a quantitative evaluation of multi-pollutant effects on atmospheric corrosion on both technically important materials and materials used in historic and cultural monuments. Many of the materials used in the construction of historic and cultural monuments are very sensitive to air pollution resulting in corrosion and soiling of the materials that were used to create the artefacts. The Programme, through the Sub-Centre for stock of materials at risk and cultural heritage, agreed to launch a Call for Data on “Inventory and condition of stock of materials at UNESCO world cultural heritage sites”. UNESCO sites are considered of outstanding universal value and are therefore ideal for illustration and dissemination of effects of air pollution on materials. The Call was approved at the 1st joint session of the Steering Body to the EMEP and the Working Group on Effects (Geneva, 14-18th September 2015) and then launched in October 2015. Documents provided by the Call included the Call text, the reporting template, an explanatory note with guidance on the use of the reporting template, and a brochure on a pilot study “Inventory and condition of stock of materials at risk at five UNESCO world cultural heritage sites”, exemplifying the approach. In addition, a page dedicated to the Call for Data was added to the ICP Materials website (http://www.corr-institute.se/icp-materials), where all documents and some examples of the reporting template were available for downloading. The call was closed in June 2017. Six Parties to the Convention; Croatia, Germany, Italy, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland, provided qualitative and quantitative data on both historic/cultural monuments and on concentrations of main air pollutants and meteo-climatic parameters measured at monitoring stations close to the selected UNESCO world cultural heritage sites. Taken together, the twenty-one cultural heritage objects included in the call have a total external surface area of about 430,000 m2 and cover a wide range of materials (natural stone, artificial stone, copper, bronze, glass and others) as well as a wide range of environmental conditions. Detailed information on monuments/sites and their selection can be found in a thematic report, ICP Materials Report No 80: Call for Data “Inventory and condition of stock of materials at UNESCO World Cultural Heritage sites”. Part I - Status Report, released in September 2017. The purpose of this report (Part II) is to assess the potential risk of damage due to air pollution on the materials of which these twenty-one cultural objects are made by using dose-response functions established by ICP Materials. The degradation rates predicted on the basis of these functions and using the environmental parameters collected during the Call for data, calculated for the materials constituting the twenty-one cultural objects, were compared with the target (tolerable corrosion rate) suggested by ICP Materials for protecting cultural heritage monuments for 2050. This comparison was then used to assess the relative risks due to air pollution for different pollutants and different materials. Future reports planned to be launched are Part III on Economic Evaluation and Part IV on the relationship between the environment and the artefact. 4 2. Cultural objects The list of the twenty-one cultural objects considered in the call for data is shown in Table 1. The beauty and uniqueness of these monuments can be appreciated from the Figures 1-21. Table 2 summarizes the occurrence of the different materials in these monuments of outstanding universal value. A more detailed description of the materials can be found in the previous ICP Materials report (ICP Materials, 2017). Taken together, the twenty-one cultural heritage objects have a total external surface area of about 430,000 m2. Not surprisingly, a high percentage of the external surfaces of this sample of built heritage, about 60%, consists of natural stone, mainly several varieties of sandstone and limestone but also talc-schist, tufa, slate (mainly for roofing) and other ornamental stone varieties, which reflect the geo-diversity and the availability of stone resources in a determined region or territory. The different stone materials that are found in built heritage are an important element in the cultural heritage of people. The exterior of the considered monuments is often finely decorated and adorned by statues, bas-reliefs, columns, capitals, etc. Carved stone is very delicate and more vulnerable to damage than bulk masonry. Artificial stone materials such as ceramic (bricks, “terracotta” tiles), plasters, mortars, and cement- based concrete also have a large presence in the exteriors of the monuments covered by the study (about 17% of the total external surface). Artificial stone materials have different characteristics with respect to natural stones. Sometimes, roofs of buildings are covered with waterproof materials based on asphalt, bitumen or tar (about 2.5% of the total external surface of the monuments considered in the present study). In some cases a certain fraction (a little less than 2%) of the outer surfaces of the monuments is painted. Most of the decorations and paintings are inside the buildings and therefore not directly exposed to outdoor concentrations of atmospheric pollutants and other external deteriorating parameters (wind, rain, salt crystallization, presence of lichens or moss, cycles of wetting and drying, etc.). Regarding the use of metals, copper and bronze are widely present in the monuments considered. In addition, decorative objects of historic and artistic interest may include other metals such as iron and lead. Copper is a constituent element of the roof in eight cultural buildings and accounts for about 3% of the total outer surface. Bronze is mainly present in belfries in the form of bells. However, it was

    The 11 historic fountains of Solothurn Fountains, in which women used to wash their clothes, can be found in every place. However, it is hardly impossible to find a place where the fountains are as grandly built as they are in Solothurn. They reflect the wealth that the French ambassadors brought into the city. “Solothurn allegedly attempted to increase the number of its fountains to 11. As a result, it became, in proportion to its size, the city with the most fountains in Switzerland”, writes Fritz Wyss in his book “Die Stadt Solothurn”. Most of the fountains were built in the 16th century. By the way: Bern, too, has 11 monumental fountains in the old city. In Solothurn water flows in many other fountains, too. In “Brunnen der Stadt Solothurn”, Adele Tatarinoff lists about fifty of them. To name but a few: the Kollegiumsbrunnen (college fountain) of 1676, the Franziskanerbrunnen (Franciscan fountain) situated south of the Franciscan church and dating from around 1759, the Pisonibrünnlein (little Pisoni fountain) (1774) next to the St. Urs tower, the Schmiedengassebrunnen (blacksmith’s alley fountain) of 1796, the Landhausbrünnlein (little Landhaus fountain) (1888) or the fountain outside of the Basel gate (1781, it was moved to its present site in 1972). The city also created fountain systems in today’s time such as the one at the vocational school (1955), the Kosciuszko fountain (1967) by the artist Schang Hutter at the Soba bank or the Heilbronn fountain (1982) at the Städtische Werke. However, the above mentioned fountains do not have the monumental size of the other 11 ones.

  • From Charlemagne to Hitler: the Imperial Crown of the Holy Roman Empire and Its Symbolism
    From Charlemagne to Hitler: The Imperial Crown of the Holy Roman Empire and its Symbolism Dagmar Paulus (University College London) [email protected] 2 The fabled Imperial Crown of the Holy Roman Empire is a striking visual image of political power whose symbolism influenced political discourse in the German-speaking lands over centuries. Together with other artefacts such as the Holy Lance or the Imperial Orb and Sword, the crown was part of the so-called Imperial Regalia, a collection of sacred objects that connotated royal authority and which were used at the coronations of kings and emperors during the Middle Ages and beyond. But even after the end of the Holy Roman Empire in 1806, the crown remained a powerful political symbol. In Germany, it was seen as the very embodiment of the Reichsidee, the concept or notion of the German Empire, which shaped the political landscape of Germany right up to National Socialism. In this paper, I will first present the crown itself as well as the political and religious connotations it carries. I will then move on to demonstrate how its symbolism was appropriated during the Second German Empire from 1871 onwards, and later by the Nazis in the so-called Third Reich, in order to legitimise political authority. I The crown, as part of the Regalia, had a symbolic and representational function that can be difficult for us to imagine today. On the one hand, it stood of course for royal authority. During coronations, the Regalia marked and established the transfer of authority from one ruler to his successor, ensuring continuity amidst the change that took place.

  • Aachen Cathedral
    Aachen, Germany Marian Shrines Aachen Cathedral Aachen cathedral is the oldest cathedral of northern Europe. The oldest part, the octagon, beeing the palace chapel of Charles-the-Great was built about 790-800 AD in the Carolingian style. The church has been consecrated in honour of the Virgin Mary. Main attraction for pilgrims was the Miraculous Madonna “Our Lady Mary Emperor of Aachen” [6]. The statue now is positioned in the octagon right of the altar. In a private revelation of a soul in the region of Aachen end of the 20th Century, the following prayer was given together with a promise of Jesus. The prayer itself has the authorization of the past as well as the present Bishop of Aachen [10]: Ave Maria, Empress, Help of Christians pray for the Diocese consecrated you, especially for the bishop, all Priests and devotees and especially for a Christian Europe. Jesus' promise to the prayer "Ave Maria, Empress, Help of Christians!": "This prayer is precious. The more it is prayed, the more will shine my light on Aachen and Europe. This prayer is like a golden key that opens my and my mother’s heart and from there the rays of My grace and Her agency can come freely to you. The more and more this prayer is prayed, the more the darkness of Europe loses ground! And that because Aachen is and remains the intellectual point, from where I will renew the world in me. And by my mother, the help of the entire Christendom, yes indeed by the heavenly empress of the world! Pray this prayer and let it all pray as often as possible! World and Church need this prayer from Aachen, the key to the light! " The Aachen cathedral also is often called the “Imperial Cathedral” (in German: Kaiserdom).

  • Protection Issues in Selected European Historic Towns and Their Contemporary Development
    E3S Web of Conferences 45, 00043 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20184500043 INFRAEKO 2018 Protection issues in selected European historic towns and their contemporary development Dominika Kuśnierz-Krupa1,* 1Cracow University of Technology, Faculty of Architecture, Podchorążych Street 1, Cracow, Poland Abstract. The presented article is aimed at presenting a few selected examples of small European historic towns whose properly protected cultural heritage considerably contributes to their development in the 21st century. The issue of protection and revalorisation of Polish towns, particularly the smaller ones, is relevant nowadays. Historic heritage seems to be a burden for local authorities and residents because very often they are not aware of how it could contribute to the multidirectional development of their towns. The local inhabitants and authorities of small historic towns in Western European countries respect their heritage much more than Poles, as they associate it with the idea of sustainable development, “place specificity”, and finally, with an opportunity for development, treating cultural heritage as a basis for economic progress and building new and modern infrastructure. It is worth drawing attention here, that sustainable development denotes changing the reality in such a way that the development would optimally satisfy the needs of modern man, without violating the needs of future generations. The testimony to the potential of the cultural heritage of historic towns in the context of their modern development is borne by the towns whose authorities and inhabitants were able to utilise their past for building their future. As examples one could name here French (e.g. Auxerre, Provins,) or German towns (e.g.

  • Definition[Edit]
    Romanesque architecture is an architectural style of medieval Europe characterized by semi-circular arches. There is no consensus for the beginning date of the Romanesque architecture, with proposals ranging from the 6th to the 10th century. It developed in the 12th century into the Gothic style, marked by pointed arches. Examples of Romanesque architecture can be found across the continent, making it the first pan-European architectural style since Imperial Roman Architecture. The Romanesque style in England is traditionally referred to as Norman architecture. Combining features of ancient Roman and Byzantine buildings and other local traditions, Romanesque architecture is known by its massive quality, thick walls, round arches, sturdy piers, groin vaults, large towers and decorative arcading. Each building has clearly defined forms, frequently of very regular, symmetrical plan; the overall appearance is one of simplicity when compared with the Gothic buildings that were to follow. The style can be identified right across Europe, despite regional characteristics and different materials. Many castles were built during this period, but they are greatly outnumbered by churches. The most significant are the great abbeychurches, many of which are still standing, more or less complete and frequently in use.[1] The enormous quantity of churches built in the Romanesque period was succeeded by the still busier period of Gothic architecture, which partly or entirely rebuilt most Romanesque churches in prosperous areas like England and Portugal. The largest groups of Romanesque survivors are in areas that were less prosperous in subsequent periods, including parts of southern France, northern Spain and rural Italy. Survivals of unfortified Romanesque secular houses and palaces, and the domestic quarters of monasteries are far rarer, but these used and adapted the features found in church buildings, on a domestic scale.
