The Moravian Church Settlements is a transnational serial extension of Christiansfeld, a Moravian Church Settlement (Denmark), already inscribed on the World Heritage List. The extension includes three municipalities founded in the 18th century: Herrnhut (Germany), Bethlehem (United States of America), and Gracehill (United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland). Each settlement has its own architectural character based on ideals of the Moravian Church but adapted to local conditions. Together, they represent the transnational scope and consistency of the international Moravian community as a global network. There is an active congregation present in each component part, where traditions are continued and constitute a living Moravian heritage.
摩拉维亚居留区
摩拉维亚居留区是已列入《世界遗产名录》丹麦遗产“克里斯丁菲尔德，摩拉维亚居留区”的跨国系列扩展。此次扩展包括3座建于18世纪的城镇：德国的黑恩胡特、美国的伯利恒和英国的格雷斯希尔，每个居留区的建筑都在摩拉维亚教会理想风格的基础上结合当地条件而自成特色。它们共同代表了摩拉维亚国际社区这一全球网络超越国界、和谐一致的特性。居留区的每个组成部分都有一个活跃教会，会众让传统得以延续，并构成摩拉维亚活态遗产。
