The historical sites in the Iron Gates Natural Park - Saint Ladislaus fortress
Explaining the Concept
After analyzing the existing situation of the Danube on Romanian land, we chose National Park – “Iron Gates” as study area for the intervention scenario at macro-territorial level due to the high number of tourist attractions (especially on “Clisura Dunarii”) . There are many actual elements, unconnected between each other, in the park area.
The area is easily accessible (due to the national road and the 4 harbors), many reservations, hiking rotes, museums, monuments and architectural aggregates.In the actual concept we are proposing to connect and capitalize the positive elements of the National Park - creating thematic routes. Each route should contain a diversity of attractions, but only one main attraction – which will give the route theme. We should have:
- “Wild life observation route”
- “Ecumenical route”
- “Cultural theme route”
- “Flora specific route”
- “Rural thematic route”
- “Reservation Route”
This Project is proposing the consolidation and restoration of “St Ladislau” fortress from Coronini village, Caras-Severing county, creating a historical theme park which will support one of the previously mentioned routes (“Cultural theme route”).
