The part of the common border region between Upper Austria and South Bohemia is economically weak. Cross-border tourism projects are a good way to reduce prejudice in the minds of people in the border region and to provide long-term economic support through tourism. This also aims at supporting the relationships between people in the cross-border region. The existing 150 km long theme trail "Castle Trail" leads through the historic cultural and natural landscape of South Bohemia and the Lower Austrian region Mühlviertel along 15 castles and ruins from the rivers Maltsch to the Danube – from the cities Budweis to Grein. Due to the increasing interest in historic buildings, the castles are more relevant than ever and have enormous touristic potential. In the program ETZ AT-CZ 2007-2013, the successful cross-border project "Burgen- und Schlösserweg / Zemská Cesta " has been realized. The aim was to create a brand for the castle trail, to establish a cross-border hiking trail and to establish intensive cross-border cooperation. Due to the success of this project, the project partners want to expand the cross-border cooperation spatially and make it more attractive for tourists (restoration and maintenance work), The project aims at increasing the knowledge on the ancient handcrafts and the common history along the way and further professionalize the marketing measures (multilingual audio guides). These measures should help to increase the interest of tourists in this cross-border region and to motivate the regional population to explore the neighboring country. In addition, they should contribute to a sustainable conservation of the objects and increase the number of visitors and overnight stays in the common border region. (English)
