  • Europa Nostra Applauds the Decision for the Inscription of Rosia Montana Mining Landscape on the World Heritage List and on the List of World Heritage in Danger
    Europa Nostra applauds the decision for the inscription of Rosia Montana mining landscape on the World Heritage List and on the List of World Heritage in Danger 27 July 2021 On behalf of our large movement of civil society committed to cultural and natural heritage, from all over Europe, including Romania, Europa Nostra congratulates very warmly the State Party and its citizens for the inscription of Rosia Montana mining landscape both on the World Heritage List and simultaneously on the List of World Heritage in Danger. This is a true milestone in the wide mobilization of heritage stakeholders to ensure a sustainable future for this exceptional cultural landscape. We can only applaud the Romanian authorities for their determination to stand by their cultural and natural heritage, to stand by the local community of Rosia Montana, and to stand by the engaging and convincing voices of civil society that have not spared their efforts to campaign to save Rosia Montana. Alongside ICOMOS and other international heritage organizations, Europa Nostra has gladly provided our support to this campaign, among others by placing in 2013 Rosia Montana on our very first List of 7 Most Endangered heritage sites in Europe, run by Europa Nostra with the European Investment Bank Institute. At that time, we were not optimistic about the future of Rosia Montana, but we were impressed by the determination of the local community and civil society not to stop resisting the plan for open-cast gold-mining by a multinational company that would have had a devastating impact on Rosia Montana’s cultural landscape.

The COVID-19 crisis has profoundly impacted the world of culture and cultural heritage. On the other hand, it offers us an opportunity to reflect upon and improve our way of life striving to make it more sustainable and more inclusive while staying economically prosperous and spiritually healthy. To achieve this goal, we need to put culture and cultural heritage even higher on the European agenda, as indicated in our European Heritage Alliance Manifesto ‘Cultural Heritage: a powerful catalyst for the future of Europe’ which is now available in 21 languages. Please help us to promote as widely as possible this important message of our Manifesto! As a European network of heritage organisations, stakeholders, volunteers and dedicated individuals, Europa Nostra’s annual meetings offer an inspiring platform to meet, network and exchange experience and ideas. Unfortunately, this year it was not possible to meet, as planned, in Brussels due to the COVID-19 pandemic which led to the postponement of our European Cultural Heritage Summit to 2021. In view of the ongoing travel restrictions, necessary safety measures and our concern for the safety and health of all our members and staff, the Board of Europa Nostra took the decision to hold the 2020 General Assembly online for the first time in the history of our organisation.
