The cultural landscape register
The cultural landscape register consists of three components
- Monuments
Buildings such as the Frankfurt Cathedral, the Ronneburg or green spaces such as the Kurpark Bad Homburg.
- Ground monuments
Archaeological monuments such as barrows, medieval land defences, the UNESCO World Heritage Limes. The data on architectural monuments and ground monuments are provided by the monument protection authorities.
- Cultural and historical landscape elements
The Regional Authority FrankfurtRheinMain itself collects the data on the cultural and historical landscape elements. Currently, the cultural landscape register comprises a total of almost 7,000 architectural monuments, ground monuments and cultural and historical landscape elements.
