Summary
Old Rauma's designation as a UNESCO World Heritage Site reflects the dynamic interplay between global heritage criteria and local perceptions, particularly regarding its 'outstanding universal value.' Research reveals that while international frameworks emphasize permanence, local narratives often highlight change and adaptation. This study analyzes how Old Rauma's historical narrative has been constructed, shaped by both global standards and local interpretations from the 1970s to the 2000s. By comparing documented heritage criteria with community perspectives, it underscores the tension between preservation ideals and lived experiences, offering insights into the fluid nature of cultural heritage definitions.
