Liverpool – Maritime Mercantile City
Liverpool's historic centre and six areas of the docklands bear witness to the development of one of the world's major trading centres in the 18th and 19th centuries. Liverpool played a major role in the development of the British Empire and became a major port for large-scale movements of people, such as slaves and immigrants from northern Europe to the United States. Liverpool was a pioneer in the development of modern dock technology, transport systems and port management. The listed site includes a number of important commercial, civic and public buildings, including St George's Plateau.
The par force hunting landscape in North Zealand
The cultural landscape is located approximately 30 km northeast of Copenhagen and includes the hunting forests of Store Dyrehave and Gribskov and the Jægersborg Hegn/Jægersborg Dyrehave hunting park. It is a carefully designed landscape where the Danish kings and their courts practiced compulsory hunting or hunting with hounds, which reached its peak in the late 17th and 18th centuries when absolute monarchs turned it into a power landscape. With hunting paths laid out in a star pattern, combined with an orthogonal grid pattern, numbered stone pillars, fences and hunting lodges, the site demonstrates the application of Baroque landscape design principles to a forested area.
