The XXI century – time of domination of information, knowledge and means of their broadcasting. In borders of political, social, cultural processes which occur as in all-European spaces and in each country relevance of knowledge of cultural properties gains the new importance and brings changes in their functioning. It is difficult to overestimate a heritage role for modern society as it is the spiritual potential of the nation, a basis of her cultural diversity and originality. In the context of knowledge and understanding of hereditary properties there is an identification process as each person separately and the nations in general. Dissemination of knowledge about the heritage opens the new horizons in studying of other cultures, cultivates respect for them, promotes a settlement and development of social, educational, cross-cultural relationship.
