This legislation sets out the essential requirements for the national inventory of intangible heritage in Luxembourg. It aims to safeguard and promote cultural elements that are vital to the country’s identity and heritage. The inventory includes detailed information on each element, such as its name, associated communities, historical significance, and preservation measures.
Furthermore, the inventory documentation encompasses narratives, visual representations, and reference materials related to the intangible heritage elements. This comprehensive approach ensures a thorough understanding and documentation of these cultural assets for future generations. By detailing the material, social, and historical aspects of each element, the inventory facilitates the transmission of knowledge and traditions across time.
The regulation underscores the importance of recognizing, preserving, and transmitting intangible heritage within Luxembourg. It emphasises the role of communities, individuals, and institutions in safeguarding these cultural practices and traditions. Through this structured inventory process, Luxembourg aims to raise awareness, appreciation, and protection of its intangible cultural heritage, contributing to the richness and diversity of its cultural landscape.
