The Balaton Ecomuseum – A Case Study on Heritage Tourism and Stakeholder Management

• Many ecomuseums are established around one certain activity, cultural tradition or use of specified natural resources. The planned Balaton Ecomuseum is complex, aiming at integrating a number of different perspectives and stakeholder interests, to promote sustainable tourism. Therefore, the “material” and intangible heritage cannot be treated as strictly separate entities, since the intangible heritage includes the artistic value of the built heritage, historic gardens and parks and the expertise of their conservation and restoration; and traditional trades and crafts. This ecomuseum shall embrace all elements of cultural landscapes, enhancing the visitors’ experience of the landscape in all its dimensions.
