This independently conducted study into the visual impact of the “Verkehrszug Waldschlösschenbrücke” has the purpose of examining all the possible consequences that the planned construction project may have on the outstanding universal value, authenticity and integrity of the “Dresden Elbe Valley” World Heritage Site. The study takes the guidelines set out in the Vienna Memorandum on “World Heritage and Contemporary Architecture – Managing the Historic Urban Landscape” into consideration. The Vienna Memorandum was passed as a result of the international UNESCO conference “World Heritage and Contemporary Architecture”, held in Vienna in May 2005. It responds to the ongoing conflict between the inevitable changes and developments which urban landscapes face as a result of new societal and economical requirements, and the necessity of conserving cultural heritage to maintain their characteristic identity. In the ever recurring conflict between the opposing forces of progress and conservation, the Vienna Memorandum aims to act as a “key statement for an integrated approach linking contemporary architecture, sustainable urban development and landscape integrity based on existing historic patterns, building stock and context.” Having named and defined a set of principles, guidelines and tools, the Vienna Memorandum represents a call for the existence of certain planning and decision-making processes to be applied when historic urban landscapes inscribed on the World Heritage List are modified and developed. These processes are to be informed by a sensitivity towards historical and cultural values, by a meticulous approach to documentation and factual analysis, by a sensitive approach and concept development, by a careful assessment of impact and consequences, by timely and comprehensive public announcements, and by in-depth communication between all parties involved. In processes thus qualified, professional competence and the responsibility for balanced decisions and actions go hand in hand. In the case of new construction projects, therefore, the Vienna Memorandum aims to achieve planning processes where impact assessment is conducted as an integral part of concept development. Detailed research into visual impact has so far been neglected in the planning of the “Verkehrszug Waldschlösschenbrücke”, and as a result, visual impact has not been adequately addressed in the overall assessment of the project – especially taking into account the importance of the site’s visual appearance in light of its World Heritage status. For this special status entails the obligation to establish sensitivity towards the heritage site as the primary basis for all decision-making processes and actions. This study therefore aims to provide the main data for assessing the visual impact of the “Verkehrszug Waldschlösschenbrücke” on the integrity of the “Dresden Elbe Valley” World Heritage Site. 6
1.3 Structure of the study The study consists of several analyses. Each analysis builds on the findings of the others. a. Analysis of evaluation criteria (Chapter 2) This analysis examines the aspects that have contributed to the ICOMOS assessment of Dresden’s Elbe valley as a site worthy of World Heritage status, as well as the criteria that supported the inscription of the Dresden Elbe Valley on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The defined criteria form the basis for assessment of how the planned bridge will affect the site’s visual integrity. b. Analysis of the affected city and landscape areas (Chapter 3) This analysis examines in greater detail that section of the “Dresden Elbe Valley” UNESCO Word Heritage Site that is relevant to field-of-view analyses – the bend in the Elbe River between Albert Bridge and Loschwitz Bridge. The historical, natural and architectural qualities of the study area are examined. This analysis aims to capture those characteristic and special qualities of the Elbe river bend that demonstrate and validate its significance as a natural river landscape, as a natural area within the urban landscape, and as a historically evolved area of cultural activity displaying achievements in town planning, landscape gardening, architecture and engineering. The analysis also examines which locations have been established over time that facilitate the viewing and experiencing of the Elbe valley. c. Analysis of historical and current city- and landscape depictions of the Dresden Elbe Valley (Chapter 4) This analysis examines historical depictions of the city and landscape, supplemented by a brief overview of the most important postcard motifs and comments on images of Dresden used in the city’s promotional materials. The analysis aims to establish how the views of the Dresden city outline and environs, particularly those relating to the Elbe river bend, were developed by different artists over time, which landscape features were and are most characteristic in the artistic representations of the area, and which views and vantage points have played an important role. This chapter furthermore examines if the “classic” city and landscape views rooted in the public consciousness of the inhabitants of and visitors to Dresden and the 7
