Borders as a Result of War – NETWORLD WWI Heritage Conference, held on 3 - 5 May 2018, Nove Hrady, Czech Republic

The objective of the conference was to help place both the tangible and intangible heritage of WWI in a transnational context by linking stories and experiences of soldiers and civilians to battles, foreign locations, and events during the war and changes after the war. It is a part of the Danube Transnational Programme project Networld that aims to increase the awareness of the First World War (WWI) heritage in a transnational context and to use this heritage for the development of a sustainable transnational cultural tourism.

Besides the official  presentations of the numerous speakers,  the conference program included excursion to  nearby open-air Border Museum and a guided tour at the exhibition “World War I - years of destruction and pain” in the Museum of South Bohemia in Ceske Budejovice.
