The basic mission of the Vyšehrad National Cultural Monument, a contributory organization of the capital city of Prague founded in 1970, is the management of historical property, rehabilitation, presentation and popularization of a unique monument, which is part of the Prague Monument Reservation and the UNESCO World Cultural and Natural Heritage List. The specificity of Vyšehrad lies in the fact that in a relatively small, clearly defined area, where a large number of functions and meanings is accumulated, be they historical or contemporary. Vyšehrad is not only a national cultural monument and a symbol, it is a living part of the city, its quiet zone, a popular place for rest and walks, a place with rich social and cultural activities and an attractive tourist destination, not only for foreigners, but especially Czech visitors. Vyšehrad is also a community of people who live and work here, and a unique natural location in the heart of the city. From this stems its uniqueness in the Czech and European context. The concentration of a larger number of people places considerable demands on the maintenance of the entrusted immovable monuments, public spaces and urban greenery. Alongside the presentation, promotion and popularization of the national significance of the Vyšehrad National Cultural Monument, it is a public service which rewards no profit.
