Heritage, is located near the Austrian border, 70 km from Vienna. Fertőrákos has a very interesting historical past and an outstanding cultural
infrastructure, such as a roman quarry with a columned hall that locates a theatre with 740 seats, the Mithras-Sanctuary - a rock chapel established 2000 years ago
by roman border guards -, and a 700 year old castle, the former episcopal see. The inscription into the World Heritage List was decided as this area has been the
meeting place of different cultures for eight millennia. This is graphically demonstrated by its varied landscape, the result of an evolutionary symbiosis between
human activity and the physical environment. The remarkable rural architecture of the villages surrounding the lake and several 18th- and 19th-century palaces adds
to the area's considerable cultural interest. REGISTRATION: Verein KulturAXE, Caroline Fekete-Kaiser, A-1030 Vienna, Esteplatz 7 Tel
