Despite all the social and political tension War cemeteries represent an important part of our history. They are unique narratives about the history of individuals, cities, nations, and social classes. By hosting the conference of the Association of Cemeteries of European Significance (ASCE), the Maribor Funeral Company will offer a sober reflection on the sensitive issue of which the Memorial Park is a part. In this way, it presents war cemeteries as an element of uncovering memory and presenting history, free from all ideological dimensions. The establishment in the form of a park dedicated to all victims of wars in the Maribor area means the transition to a cultural monument or cultural heritage area, which is reflected in a higher level of public interest.
