Industrial Cultural Landscapes within the World Heritage Context
The term “cultural landscape” as an expression of local identity is coming more and more to the forefront in a large number of regional and urban planning processes: not least because the European landscape Convention that came into force in 2004 put the focus on cultural landscape as a planning object. This was the first global agreement on protecting and – primarily – developing and consciously planning the landscape. Long beforehand UNESCO had recognised the conservation value of landscapes in an “Agreement on Protecting the World’s Cultural and Natural Heritage” (World Heritage Convention 1972); and a World Heritage list of cultural and natural landscapes was introduced for the first time in 1992.

In recent years discussions on cultural landscapes have moved from outdated concepts of ideal, idyllic cultural landscapes to more pragmatic contemporary definitions. Alongside quasi-natural cultural landscapes there are a number of different types of urban and industrial landscapes that have hitherto not been clearly demarcated. To date there have been no binding criteria – especially with reference to industrial cultural landscapes – to enable us to do so.
In October 2013 international experts met up at a workshop given in the Technical University of Freiberg Mining Academy to discuss industrial and mining landscapes in the context of UNESCO World Heritage. Using a variety of different cases they discussed how to deal with this special type of cultural asset within UNESCO’s Protection and Conservation Agreement.
The current symposium aims to sharpen the concept of industrial landscape. We want to outline a definition and name the constituent parts of this particular type of landscape. Methodical and conceptional approaches will be presented and discussed using practical examples from Europe and analyses of the Ruhrgebiet landscape
