Therefore, it is our mission with this Atlas to show an interconnected spatial and cultural system of communities along the Danube, helping to understand the highly complex and dynamic transformation of our region through the centuries and to value its natural and built resources. Besides the presentation of Danubian medium and small cities, and their undiscovered heritage and potentials, our mission was also to spread the successful stories and projects from the region, promoting the transferability of good practices to less developed towns. We aimed to make comparable the spatial development of the selected settlements along the Danube by using the common format of this Atlas for many diverse maps, photos, illustrations, and short texts....
