The President of the Republic Zoran Milanovi\u0107 attended today the official opening of the House of the Halubaj Bell Ringer in Vi\u0161kovo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his address, President Milanovi\u0107 emphasized the importance of investing in cultural initiatives that promote a community\u2019s identity and traditions. \u201cThis is impressive and it demonstrates a higher standard, when the society and community are able to allocate that extra dollar or euro for something that is beautiful and dear to one\u2019s heart. Because, this is not a business zone and it will need to be maintained, just like the Alka Halls in Sinj. The people who work here will educate both children and visitors. It\u2019s worth the money and I congratulate you on that. Thank you for that initiative, because only those who think ahead do something like this,\u201d said the President of the Republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Halubaj Bell Ringers stand as the foremost custodians of the rich traditions of the Halubaj and Kastav regions. Renowned for their annual procession, this group has gained global recognition. Their procession holds a coveted spot on UNESCO\u2019s list of intangible cultural heritage. Additionally, the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Croatia has designated them as a cultural property, leading to their inclusion in the Register of Cultural Property of Croatia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recognizing the significant cultural and touristic value of the bell ringers, the Municipality of Vi\u0161kovo has taken the initiative to construct the House of the Halubaj Bell Ringer. This endeavour is a vital component of the broader integrated project titled \u201cLet\u2019s Connect with Heritage.\u201d Through the ITI mechanism (Integrated Territorial Investments), grants are allocated to towns and municipalities within the urban area of Rijeka to support such endeavours. The House of the Halubaj Bell Ringer stands out as the sole new construction within this integrated project. Beyond serving as a permanent museum exhibition space showcasing the rich history, customs, and traditions of the bell ringers, the facility is also designed to host a variety of events. These include gallery exhibitions, cultural showcases, educational programmes, culinary experiences, and hospitality events. Moreover, the space will serve as a venue for professional and scientific gatherings, further enhancing its significance as a cultural hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to President Milanovi\u0107, also speaking at the opening ceremony were the Head of the Municipality of Vi\u0161kovo Sanja Udovi\u0107, the Director of the House of the Halubaj Bell Ringer Dominik Dami\u0161, the President of the Association of Halubaj Bell Ringers Damir Host, the Mayor of Rijeka Marko Filipovi\u0107, Primorje-Gorski Kotar County Prefect Zlatko Komadina, and the Mayor of Bakar and delegate of the Speaker of the Croatian Parliament Tomislav Klari\u0107.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Milanovi\u0107 was accompanied by Zdravko Zima, Special Adviser to the President of the Republic for Culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
