First stage of the 750-minute-contest in Győr

Győr 750 contest! This year this does not refer to an outstanding or rare collocation, but rather a quite enjoyable series of events, which is undoubtedly an unusual and odd one in the life of Arrabona EGTC. In the framework of the EGTC-winning tender with the ID TOP-7.1.1-16-H-ESZA-2020-01590, Arrabona EGTC organises a series of contests for high school students, where the contestants are given a chance to compete against one another in the field of sport, culture and creative economy.

DANUrB+ Danube Urban Brand+ (Building Regional and Local Resilience through the Valorization of Cultural Heritage)

The programme’s aim is to strengthen the Danubian identity and to create a common cultural network and a tourism brand. The main objective of the multiannual programme’s projects is to create the “European Cultural Route”, a comprehensive spatial and cultural network which connects and brings together every community by the Danube under a brand name as a single tourist destination.

Komfort (Joint Development of the Fortress System of Komárno and Komárom)

The fortification system of Komárom-Komárno is already a major tourist attraction in the border region and is on the UNESCO World Heritage list. To make the fortification system an even bigger tourist attraction, the Komfort project includes infrastructure renovations in the New Fortress in Komárno (SK) and in the Fort Igmándi in Komárom (HU).

CULTPLAY – Interactive Thematic Parks – Innovative Use of Cultural Heritage

The strategic objective of the CULTPLAY project is to involve local residents and visitors in using the existing cultural heritage in a new way. CULTPLAY parks have been built in 9 municipalities (SK: Nové Zámky, Komárno, Hurbanovo, Kolárovo, Šaľa, HU: Komárom, Tata, Oroszlány, Kisbér) in order to present the cultural heritage on both sides of the Danube. CULTPLAY parks are thematic parks that can be used by children as playgrounds, and they also include augmented reality development, which will be available in 3 languages (HU, SK, EN).
