The project focuses on the creation and implementation of optimal tools for the identification, comprehensive research, documentation and presentation of sepulchral monuments, unused or partially abandoned cemeteries, which are carriers of cultural and heritage value, but are currently or may be threatened with extinction or such changes that would fundamentally change their nature. Due to the concentration of similar sites in the area of the former Sudetenland, where the continuity of settlement, and therefore cultural continuity, has been significantly interrupted in modern history, the project is geographically focused primarily on the border regions of the Czech Republic.
