What defines Industrial heritage?

Industrial heritage is for places where this specific type of location or activity is clearly present. The label should immediately explain why someone would open this spot.

Inside {category}, compare this label with Old bridges, Historic walking routes, and Ruins & castles. Choose Industrial heritage only when it is the most precise description.

Criteria for this label

A spot fits Industrial heritage when the location, route or facility can be used for this subject without extra explanation. It should be more specific than the main category {category}.

The best spots within Industrial heritage have a clear description, a recognizable photo and practical context such as access, position or what you can do there.

What does not belong here?

Choose the main category or a related subcategory when the place is broader than {name} or clearly belongs to another subject.
