ROMAN LEGACY

What is the ROMAN LEGACY project?

 The ROMAN LEGACY project aims to develop a transnational Cultural Route along the Roman Danube Limes, embedded within a broader Theme Region. This initiative highlights the shared Roman heritage that connects countries along the Danube, from Germany to the Black Sea. It capitalises on the legacy of earlier EU projects and unites partners from 10 countries to preserve, interpret, and promote this common cultural legacy. The ultimate goal is to submit the route for official certification as a Cultural Route of the Council of Europe. 

How to achieve goal of ROMAN LEGACY?

ROMAN LEGACY will achieve its goal through three key actions:

  1. Transnational networking and knowledge sharing:
    A stakeholder network and Scientific Board will be established to provide a collaborative platform for authorities, museums, tourism operators, and researchers across the Danube region.
  2. Joint presentation and Promotion strategy:
    The project will create a shared branding identity, interpretive framework, and digital tools (such as VR/AR reconstructions, a website, and mobile app) to present Roman heritage sites in a unified and engaging way.
  3. Creation and Certification of the Cultural Route:
    By defining the route, developing Roman Trails, and installing onsite materials, the project will prepare the application for certification as a Council of Europe Cultural Route and ensure long-term sustainability through an international management structure.
