Leipzig VIAREGIA Cultural Routes Council of Europe International Symposium

 

The VIA REGIA, Cultural Route of the Council of Europe certified in 2005, is the oldest and longest road linking Eastern and Western Europe where travellers can espouse the principle of "deceleration" as a basis for slowly enjoying this route across Europe's cultural space, from east to west or vice versa. A lengthy historical background is reflected by a rich heritage, ranging from the architectural heritage to intangible traditions that have shaped the European continent.
