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. The programme offers thematic routes and development opportunities that can increase the number of visitors, prolonging their stay in the region. It creates action plans on how to reinterpret currently unutilized or underutilised architectural and cultural monuments, infrastructure in a transnational context. The DANUrB and DANUrB+ programmes are focussed on strengthening the cultural potential of small and medium-sized riverside towns and cities by using the resources and cultural wealth of the Danube.
