Schengen added to the European Heritage Label list
The Schengen Area currently includes 26 Member States and has become synonymous with the free circulation of people and goods.
The European Commission has just added nine European sites celebrating and symbolising European ideals, values, history and integration to the European Heritage Label list. The label is intended to strengthen the sense of belonging of European citizens – particularly young people – to the European Union, and to stimulate intercultural dialogue.
Among these nine sites is the village of Schengen, the first site in Luxembourg to be added to the European Heritage Label list. Schengen symbolises one of the major results of European integration.
The little village located on the border between three countries has always been associated with European integration since the signing of the Schengen Agreement on 14th June 1985, on board the ship 'Princesse Marie-Astrid', when France, Germany and the Benelux countries committed to give up in internal border controls within the countries concerned.
The Schengen Area currently includes 26 Member States and has become synonymous with the free circulation of people and goods.
