What belongs in Historic Heritage?

Historic heritage gains value through story. Add date, background, visible details and respectful visiting notes instead of only naming the monument.

Historic Heritage covers spots where this theme is central. The place should be recognizable, visitable and useful for someone actively looking for this kind of location.

Use the 12 subcategories to describe the place more precisely. Examples include Old bridges, Industrial heritage, Historic walking routes, and Ruins & castles.

Criteria for this category

Choose Historic Heritage when the activity, function or setting of the spot directly fits this theme. The description and photo should make it clear why the place belongs here.

If several labels could apply, choose the subcategory that most concretely describes what someone can do or see at the location.

What does not belong here?

A place does not automatically belong in Historic Heritage because it is beautiful, quiet or popular. The main feature must genuinely match this category.

Use another category when the place is mainly about food, views, history, sport, nature or public facilities and {name} is only a side detail.
