Temporary List of Cultural Heritage Monuments under Protection is Signed

Minister of Culture, Youth and Sports, Memli Krasniqi signed today the supplementations of the Temporary List of Cultural Heritage Monuments under Protection. In the earlier list there were 1,181 assets of heritage, while the List signed today contains 1,428 assets of heritage.

From the list drafted by Regional Centres of Cultural Heritage and the respective Commission within the Department of Cultural Heritage, there were removed 77 assets of various categories.

While, upon recommendation from these mechanisms, there were added 45 new proposals from the archaeological heritage, 77 monuments from architectural heritage and for the first time the temporary List for protection has covered the assets of movable heritage. Their number is in total 200.

Minister Krasniqi highly valued the signing of this list, considering it as a significant step for protection of cultural heritage, thus emphasising the need to make functional as soon as possible the Council of Kosovo for Cultural Heritage, and to afterwards begin with the work on drafting and adoption of the Permanent List.
