759 NL - Dutch Water Defence Lines (1996/2021)

Brief Description

"The significant boundary modification of the property first inscribed in 1996 stretches from the IJsselmeer (previously known as Zuiderzee) at Muiden to the Biesbosch estuary at Werkendam. This modification adds the New Dutch Waterline to the existing Defence Line of Amsterdam World Heritage site, to become the Dutch Water Defence Lines World Heritage property and also includes a number of small extensions and reductions to the boundaries of the Defence Line of Amsterdam World Heritage property. In particular, the extension illustrates a single military defence system, which was based on inundation fields, hydraulic installations and on a series of fortifications and military posts stretching over an area of 85 km. It also includes three smaller components: Fort Werk IV, the Tiel Inundation Canal and Fort Pannerden near the German border. Built from 1814 to 1940, they complement the already inscribed site, which is the only example of a fortification based on the principle of controlling the waters. Since the 16th century, the people of the Netherlands have used their expert knowledge of hydraulic engineering for defence purposes. The centre of the country was protected by a network of 45 armed forts, acting in concert with temporary flooding from polders and an intricate system of canals and locks."

阿姆斯特丹的防御线
"这个1996年首次被列入名录的遗产区对其边界进行了重大调整，从穆登的艾瑟尔湖 (旧称“须德海”)一直延伸到韦尔肯丹的莎草河口。这一修改将荷兰水防线的较新部分与原有世界遗产“阿姆斯特丹的防御线”融合，成为“荷兰水防线”世界遗产。此次调整还包括对原遗产区的边界的一些小的扩展和缩减，其中扩展部分特别展现了一个由低地水网、水利设施以及一系列防御工事和军事哨所组成的绵延85公里长的军事防御系统。荷兰水防线还包括3个较小的组成部分：哥伦布绿堡、蒂尔洪水运河和靠近德国边境的潘纳登堡。它们建成于1814-1940年之间，是对已经列入名录的遗产区的补充。原遗产是唯一一个以水量控制原则为基础建成的防御工事。自16世纪起，荷兰人民就把他们的水利工程专业知识用于防御目的。国家的中心部分由45个武装堡垒组成的防线保护着，这些堡垒与圩田上的蓄洪以及错综复杂的水渠和水闸系统相互配合。"

1133 AT/BE/CZ/DE/ES/HR/IT/RO/UA - Ancient and Primeval Beech Forests of the Carpathians and Other Regions of Europe (2007)

Brief Description

"The Primeval Beech Forests of the Carpathian, an outstanding example of undisturbed, complex temperate forests, constitute a transnational serial property of ten separate components along a 185 km axis from the Rakhiv Mountains and the Chornohirskyi Range in Ukraine, west along the Polonynian Ridge, to the Bukovské Vrchy and Vihorlat Mountains in Slovakia. They contain an invaluable genetic reservoir of beech and many species associated with, and dependent on, these forest habitats. They are also an outstanding example of the recolonization and development of terrestrial ecosystems and communities after the last Ice Age, a process which is still ongoing.

The Ancient Beech Forests of Germany, represent examples of on-going post-glacial biological and ecological evolution of terrestrial ecosystems and are indispensable to understanding the spread of the beech in the Northern Hemisphere across a variety of environments. The new inscription represents the addition of five forests totaling 4,391 hectares that are added to the 29,278 hectares of Slovakian and Ukranian beech forests inscribed on the World Heritage List in 2007. The tri-national property is now to be known as the Primeval Beech Forests of the Carpathians and the Ancient Beech Forests of Germany (Slovakia, Ukraine, Germany)."

喀尔巴阡山脉原始山毛榉林
" 喀尔巴阡山脉原始山毛榉林，由10个跨国的连续遗产组成，沿185公里的轴线，从乌克兰拉希夫山脉和 Chornohirskyi西沿Polonynian山脊，一直到斯洛伐克的Bukovské Vrchy和Vihorlat山脉。这10个遗址是原始的、多元的温带森林的突出例子，展示了最完整、最广泛的生态模式和纯粹的欧洲山毛榉群丛在各种环境 条件下的生长过程。它们包含着宝贵的山毛榉基因库和与这些森林栖息地相关并依赖其生存的许多生物。它们还是上一个冰河时代后陆地生态系统和群落再移植和发 展的突出例子。"
