I voted in favour of the report on the European Heritage Label. When we talk about European culture, we generally mean the individual cultural experiences of the various Member States, whereas we rarely refer to our common heritage, namely European heritage, which extends beyond the borders of nations’ individual ‘histories’. In this regard, the European label is a vitally important initiative that bears witness to Europe’s common roots, irrespective of the past sites. The European label will, therefore, strengthen the cohesion, visibility and credibility of the whole of Europe by setting out clear and stringent selection criteria. It will be awarded every two years following approval by an authoritative, independent committee. The yardstick will not be a site’s beauty, although this will be subject to assessment, but rather its intrinsic and symbolic value, primarily for European integration. Therefore, the European label is essential to develop a cultural, and not just an economic and political, Europe."@en1
