Culture and local history
The Saarpfalz district is a region so steeped in history that it has preserved a rich cultural heritage from the most diverse eras. The sum of these historical legacies forms an important part of the basis of Saar Palatinate's identity.
Against this background, it is particularly important to research the eventful history and its formative forces and to make the findings accessible to a broad public. To the same extent, it is also important to maintain the historical heritage as a common good, to develop utilisation concepts and to integrate them into the current everyday world. Cultural heritage includes not only historical buildings and places, but also customs, dialects and cultural landscapes.
In order to strengthen regional identity, there is also a need for advice and support with regard to urban and village development, building culture, the creation of local chronicles and the initiation of projects by associations or other communities.
