Herntage, Snte, Redwood Natxonal Park REDWOOD NATIONAL PARK WORLD HERNTAGE, SNTE, REDWOOD NATXONAL PARK ALL TREES, CRASHING WAVES, SUMMER, FOG, and rivers, both clear and raging, all make up the Redwood experience. When io.,g."tt created Redwood National Park on October Z, 1968, it set aside 56'000 C acres ". to preserve significant examples of the primeval coastal redwo-od (Sequ.oia .sempervirens) forests and the streams and seashores with which they are associated for purposes of public inspiration, enjoyment and scientific study..." Not quite ten years later, Congress expanded Redwood National Park on March 27, !978 ". to protect existing irreplaceable Redwood NationaI Park resources from damaging upslope and upstream land uses, to provide a land base sufficient to insure preservation of significant examples of the coastal redwood. and to eslablish a more meaningful Redwood National Park for the use and enjoyment of visitors. " INCLUDEDWTHIN THE 1O6,OOO,ACRE WORLD HERITAGE SITE ARE three California Redwood State Park-.; Prairie Creek Red- woods, Del Norte Coast Redwoods and Jedediah Smith Redwoods. Acquired through the early efforts of the Save- the-Redwoodt Leagrr" and the State of California, and owned and operated by the State Department of Parks and Recreation, all three contain superlative old growth red- woods. Prairie Creek and Del Norte Coast are also well known for their spectacular, wilderness-like seashore, while Jedediah Smith includes a portion of the Smith River, which hosts the largest steelhead and salmon in the State, and which is both a State and Federal Vild and Scenic River. \Tithin their 28,000 * acres, these three classical red- wood parks preserve three hundred and twenty-four (324) memorial groves and hosted 378,571 visitors last year in their well-developed and maintained campgrounds and day' use areas. TOGETHER, THE NATIONAL AND STATE PARK LANDS OFFER A wide variety of inspiring recreational experiences for the visitor, a source of research opportunities for scientists, and a unique variety of floral, faunal, and cultural resources.

The convention recog- nized three basic principles: That each nation holds in trust for the rest of mankind those parts of the world heritage that are found within its boundaries; that the international community has an obligation to support any nation in discharging this trust if its own resources are insufficient; and that mankind must exercise the same sense of respon' sibility to the works of nature as to the works of its own hand. NATURAL HERITAGE PROPERTIES MAY BE EITHER NATURAL features, sites, or areas which are of outstanding universal value from the point of view of science, conservation' aesthetics, or natural beauty, or a combination of these. Redwood National Park possesses all of these values within its boundaries. Thus it is eminently qualified to be desig- nated as a World Heritage Site, and we are justly proud to be a part of this noble endeavor.

  • 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).

  • 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.

  • Draft Concept Paper: World Heritage Site Manager Workshop, Denmark 21 24 April 2009 Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit
    Draft Concept Paper: World Heritage Site Manager Workshop, Denmark 21 24 April 2009 Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit The Heritage Agency of Denmark has generously decided to host a workshop on the Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit (EoH). Representatives from all the Nordic sites are invited to attend. Nordic World Heritage Foundation will in cooperation with the Danish authorities organize this workshop in April 2009. The workshop is a result of the recommendations from the Periodic Reporting process. 1. Background and objectives The European Periodic Report was submitted to the World Heritage Committee at its 30th meeting in Vilnius 2006. The Nordic Baltic sub-regional report, annexed to the regional report, identifies a number of challenges for the implementation of the World Heritage Convention in the sub-region. Periodic Reporting is widely recognised as an important tool to strengthen and maintain the integrity and credibility of the World Heritage concept. The Periodic Reporting process has so far been successful in developing international cooperation and in providing an account of the status of World Heritage sites. This workshop follows the recommendations from the meeting between the Nordic and Baltic States Parties in 2007 (see Annex I Recommendations from the meeting on Periodic Reporting, Helsinki 3-4 May 2007 no: 6, 7 & 12). The World Heritage Committee will examine the Periodic Reporting follow-up activities for the European region at its 34th session in 2010. The Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit contains twelve practical tools. Although it has been developed with a focus on natural properties, the initiative also has potential value as a tool to assist site managers of cultural properties.
