Résumé en anglais
The safeguarding of the spirit of place depends on the connectionbetween people and their heritage. Maintenance and monitored
based preventive preservation involves more people and localcraftsmen in the process. The paper investigates some examples of
different implementations of maintenance services in Europeaccording to the Dutch model of Monumentenwacht, namely in
Belgium, in Denmark and in Hungary. Their role as stimulator ofenhancement of traditional crafts is examined, as they are considered
to contribute to preservation of local intangible heritage and tocommunity involvement. The role of such organisations as
(independent) supporters to heritage owners or site managers ishighlighted.
