European Heritage Days (EHD) is an annual event that opens up as many interesting and exceptional architectural, archaeological and sacred monuments, museums, galleries and libraries, technical monuments and militaria, buildings, objects and other spaces, all of which house an incredibly vast amount of collections and movable cultural heritage.

"Times are changing and the city with them. We would hardly recognize the many corners of České Budějovice if we were in the times of Maria Theresa, for example, and the townspeople of that time would wonder what the town looked like during the reign of Charles IV. Nevertheless, some places have been preserved throughout the ages. As the buildings age, they become monuments that deserve our attention not only for their age but also as witnesses to ancient events and ways of life. But it has taken many generations for people to become fully aware of this idea. It was only at the moment when the monumental buildings were disappearing like snow in spring that a kind of emptiness and nostalgia for the old days appeared in the soul of modern man. It was then that an interest in monuments and their preservation was born, at first perhaps rather romantic, but increasingly also based on expert research, which grew into the European Heritage Days."
