EHV - Park of the former Grand Hotel Waldlust - Recultivation
Фройденштадт, Германия Другое...
Гудсёрфинг .
The Waldlust Hotel in Freudenstadt, founded in 1899, was a first choice resort of a noble society of spa guests. It stands as a historic architecture building, as a cultural heritage treasury, as a long time social meeting place in a high rank – a unique symbol of a former golden period of town development.
It is surrounded by a wide park area, which formerly served as an old style wellness and leisure time retreat for the noble high society clientele. The park had been fallen to oblivion in many years. Due to the absence of any gardening, cultivation forms and structures had gone lost.
The project consist of two parts – a practical working part which will last 6 hours per day and a study part, which takes place in the evenings and during weekends.
The project will focus on the recultivation of the former hotel park. While restoring and cultivating further parts of the historic hotel park, the old concept of Parkwald (park forest) should be regained und brought into presence. This means the clearing of small or middle aged trees and plants that are not typically for the park as well as the excavation of garden structures with century old origin currently covered by leaves.
In addition, the reconstruction of a historic path, which has been started in the previous project will be continued. Finally, a sand stone wall that accompanies the main access path to the former hotel will be repaired.

EHV - Amantia Archaeological Park - Excavations and Conservation of Tombs
Албания Археология
The ancient city of Amantia has been one of the most important cities of South Illyria. The ancient city ruins of the fortification of the Acropolis, the Ancient Stadium, the Early Christian Basilica and the Temple of Aphrodite as well as remains of other buildings have been preserved.
The trait of Amantia and one of its most attractive elements is the necropolis, rich in monumental tombs, dating back to the late 4th century BC. Three specimens of this type of tombs can be found here, among which the most representative is the so called the Jew's Tomb.
Due to their monumental construction and rich inventory, these graves have become the object of theft, illegal excavations and vandalism, starting from antiquity to nowadays.
The project will be very intensive and consist of two parts – a practical working part and a study part. The practical working part, which will be at different parts of the site, will last six hours per day. In the evenings and during the weekend, educational and cultural activities will take place.
The project aims to rehabilitation, archaeological rescue excavation and documentation of damaged funerary structures in the North-Eastern area of the necropolis. The intervention will consist of the removal of soil caused by the clandestine digging activities, the opening of a survey of the archaeological structures and their documentation.
Due to the violation of the Jew's Tomb, some of its blocks collapsed. During the project, the vegetation will be removed, the harm will be cleaned up and the architectural elements will be returned to their original places.
Besides the interventions in the monuments, paths to the tombs will be created. At the end of the interventions, the entire itinerary will be equipped with orientation and explanatory tables.

The Park is also known for its unique nature and is a member of the UNESCO World Network of Biosphere Reserves.
The project will focus on the conservation and restoration of the chapel of St. Apostle John the Evangelist (18th century) and a water mill from (late 19th century) both located in Zekhnova village.
In 2008, a team of local carpenters performed a series of restoration works on the bell tower and the roofing of the chapel. Nevertheless, there are still interventions needed in order to preserve the chapel. In particular, during the project following works are planned: corrective actions at the bell tower and at the porch, a partial replacement of the roof construction, the dome-drum and supporting beams as well as a partial replacement of the wooden shingles.
The water mill in Zekhnova village exists since 19th century and was abandoned in 1970-s. The restoration of the mill began in 2004 and was finished in 2008, but the water channel sourcing the mill is still in poor condition. During the project the channel will be deconstructed, damaged logs will be replaced by new ones, the necessary treatment measures will be undertaken to revitalize the channel.
During the project, volunteers will have the opportunity to use traditional carpentry tools and earn basic techniques of working with axes. They will also learn several ways of marking and replacing logs as well as other wood processing technologies. In addition, volunteers will understand how water mills work and will have the chance to see such construction from an insider's view.
The program will be completed by excursions.

EHV - Jewish cemeteries - Rescue and documentation
Хальберштадт, Германия Другое...
A Jewish community in Halberstadt had existed since 13th century. Around the year 1700 the famous royal resident of Poland and agent or the Saxon court, Berend Lehmann, established a house of learning, the so called “Klaussynagogue”. The community was characterised by eruditeness and developed from the middle of the 19th century on into one of the centres of the Jewish orthodoxy.
The three Jewish cemeteries in Halberstadt with in total more than 1,000 grave stones from a period of more than 300 years sire of the clarity of past days. The inscriptions represent a value that has to be saved for upcoming generations and is still waiting to be discovered.
The project consist of two parts – a practical working part which will last 6 hours per day and a study part, which takes place in the evenings and during weekends
This European Heritage Volunteers Project is the continuation of a similar project that had taken place in 2018. In 2018, around 85 % of the gravestones at the oldest cemetery were documented; in 2019 the works will be finished. After having done so, the documentation of the gravestones at the cemetery Nr. 2 will start. Most of the gravestones at the Jewish cemeteries in Halberstadt are endangered by efflorescence, and the inscriptions become from year to year less readable.
On the oldest cemetery the vegetation around the grave stones will be removed and the moss at the stones will be carefully eliminated in order to prevent the ongoing impairment of the grave stones by plants. In addition, that part of the cemetery that had in 2018 not been accessible due to the high vegetation will be measured and the exact position of every grave stone will be marked. The completed plan will serve as base for the detailed documentation of the remaining 15 % of the grave stones at the oldest cemetery.
In continuation of the 2018 project the documentation will include a digital photographic part and a verbal part and may be complemented at one or the other grave stone by manual drawings, to create a second transmission as well as cautious restoring measures.
Within the framework of collaboration with Technical University Braunschweig a special scan technology will be used at selected gravestones at the oldest cemetery that enables to make parts of the inscriptions readable that are due to erosion already not readable by human eyes.
In the frame of the educational part various lectures and guided tours as well as an excursion will be organised that the participants can gain comprehensive and detailed knowledge about the Jewish history in Germany and Europe, about Jewish heritage, but also about the rich history and the high valuable heritage of Halberstadt in general.

EHV - Markus-Röhling Stolln - Valorisation of mining heritage
Аннаберг-Буххольц, Германия Другое...
The Annaberg-Frohnau Mining Landscapes developed during the second phase of the silver mining activities in the Ore Mountains, when the activities were reaching the upper parts of the Ore Mountains at the end of the 15th century. Annaberg is the first planned mining town in the region and is characterised by an exceptional town layout and architecture, with mine workings located directly beneath the town.
The Markus Röhling mine with its adit and silver and cobalt mining underground galleries from the 18th and the 19th centuries, wheel chambers from the 18th century as well as the uranium mining galleries of the 20th century became the most important mine in the Annaberg-Frohnau Mining Landscape in particular due to the opening up of high-grade ore zones.
The project consist of two parts – a practical working part which will last 6 hours per day and a study part, which takes place in the evenings and during weekends
The main focus of the project will lay on the reconstruction of historic waterworks in accordance to historic drawings. Under the guidance of a carpenter specialized in historic mining techniques the volunteers will reconstruct wooden waterworks in the mine that were used for water management. The works will include the reconstruction of a pumping system, both over- and underground, for driving the water wheel and a replica of a four-man winch according to the hoisting shaft – both over- and underground. Both reconstructions will improve the presentation of the site to visitors.
In addition, the volunteers will support to maintain the collection of historic mining machines that are partly still functioning and are used for demonstration purposes. The work includes the installation and reparation of a historic loader in the outdoor area, protecting machines from corrosion, and the erection of a roof to protect the outside equipment.
Finally, the volunteers will improve the accessibility and visibility of the area of the Markus Röhling Mine. The mine covers over ground a larger area that is accessible by an educational path. The intervention shall improve the condition of the path and related structures by removing the vegetation of the 1st Lichtloch (shaft) and renewing the barrier.

EHV - Classical Weimar - Historic Gardens and Parks
Веймар, Германия Другое...
In the late 18th and early 19th centuries the small town of Weimar in Thuringia saw a remarkable cultural flowering. Enlightened ducal patronage attracted many leading German writers, composers and artists to the town, including Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Friedrich Schiller and Franz Liszt, thus making Weimar the cultural centre of Europe at that time. This development is reflected in the high quality of many of the buildings and parks in the surrounding area.
The Classical Weimar was inscribed to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998 and comprises twelve individual buildings and ensembles: Weimar’s City Castle, the Duchess Anna Amalia Library, Goethe’s and Schiller’s residences, the Town Church, the Ducal Vault with the Historic Cemetery and many others.
The project consist of two parts – a practical working part which will last 6 hours per day and a study part, which takes place in the evenings and during weekends.
The practical part usually consists of two elements – a park restoration part on one hand and a maintenance part on the other hand. Due to a rotating system the volunteers have the opportunity to get to know during the project both fields.
The restoration part will take place at the so called "kitchen garden" at the Southern edge of Belvedere Park that had been arranged in the 19th century as a combined fruit, vegetable and flower garden. The dry stone walls as the formative element of the garden are ruinous and shall be protected against progressive decay. Since the dry stone walls are an important habitat for wild bees and other rare insects the restoration needs to be carried out extremely carefully. Plants that damage the walls will be carefully taken away, the walls will be documented, the stones that had fallen down over decades will be collected, their original places determined, smaller areas will be restored and the cap stones will be placed back. The works will be guided by a bricklayer specialised on historic walls and traditional techniques that will provide during the study part more theoretical knowledge in this field.
Another part of the group will carry out maintenance works in other parks and gardens of the site, thus supporting Weimar Classic Foundation, the responsible site management, in works that can be undertaken only manually, such as cutting long-grass meadows on slopes. At the same time the volunteers will gain a detailed knowledge about the different parks and gardens of the World Heritage site and the challenges in managing them.
The educational part of the project will inform the volunteers about the background of the project, provide knowledge about historical garden and park architecture, traditional gardening and other related topics and will include lectures and guided tours about Classical Weimar as well as excursions to related heritage sites. The opportunity of free entrance to museums and exhibitions will enable in addition individual study.

EHV - Zorats Church - Built Heritage Preservation
Армения Другое...
Zorats church (“Soldier Church”) is located in the Vayots Dzor district, in the Eastern part of Yeghegis village on a hill overlooking the river. It was built in 1303 by archbishop Stepanos – a grandson of Prince Tarsaiyich Orbelian.
Recent excavations around Zorats Church have uncovered a number of foundations, well preserved walls and window casings from early medieval times, when a monastery was established on the place.
Zorats Church is completely unique among Armenian churches; no other similar structures have been conserved in the whole country: it was created in a special way to enable warriors sitting on their horses to receive the sacrament and the blessing of the church before leaving to battle. The blessing of troops and their horses before battle were commonplace, but no other church in Armenia was built exactly for that purpose, and with the idea of bringing both steed and soldier into the outdoor sanctuary.
The church and the cemetery were surrounded by walls. A number of rough tomb stones lie on the ground in front of the church, and they are quite revealing; each bears a carefully carved eye hole at one end. The purpose for these holes is unclear, though researchers believe the stones are ancient and that they suggest this is a very old worship site, converted to Christian use at an early age. Other stones are from later periods; including several nicely carved khachkars (“cross stones”).
The project will be very intensive and consist of two parts – a practical working part and a study part. The practical working part, which will be at different parts of the site, will last six hours per day. In the evenings and during the weekend, educational and cultural activities will take place.
The project will include various preservation, cleaning and maintenance activities at Zorats Church and its direct surroundings.
The main focus will lie on the consolidation and preservation of the fortification walls and the ruins of the former buildings in front of the church.
Beside that, the roof of the church which is covered by flagstones will be cleaned from vegetation, loosened flagstones fixed and damaged parts repaired.
Finally, under the supervision of local expert tomb stones and cross stones will be cleaned, re-erected and fixed.
Within the framework of the educational part the volunteers will participate in workshops and presentations, discuss with locals, heritage administration and churchmen the importance of heritage preservation. They will also gain knowledge about Armenian heritage, local history and regional traditions.
During the project guided tours and excursions will be organized to nearby located heritage sites of the region as for instance to the “Birds’ Cave” where archaeologists found a 5.500 years old leather show, the oldest known leather shoe in the world.
