Cultural routes
Spatial development glossary, European Conference of Ministers responsible for Spatial/Regional Planning (CEMAT), Territory and landscape, No. 2, published by Council of Europe Publishing in 2007, defines cultural routes as: ‘…itineraries which gather significant elements of heritage and traditions witnessing and illustrating specific periods and events of European history. Cultural routes involve also intangible and spatial dynamics not possessed by a cultural landscape, which is more static and restricted in nature.’
