Applicant: The Forster Gyula National Centre for Heritage Protection and Asset Management (hereinafter referred to as: Forster Centre) is a central budgetary body and legal entity with national competence, which operates independently and manages it. Its core activity is the preservation, development, exploitation and operation of certain properties of high cultural heritage value held permanently in state ownership, including the provision of museums, culture and other cultural services. It performs the maintenance, development, utilisation and operation of the state-owned heritage in its asset management, the prominent monuments, monuments, monumental values and archaeological sites, equipment and collections within the framework of Heritage Management. In the present project, the Applicant intends to renovate the Károlyi Castle in Füzérradvány, Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén county, and to enrich its range of services with additional tourist attractions. Location of the project: 3993 Füzérradvány, Kossuth Lajos u. 2., HRSZ: 247. Objectives: The basic goal of the development is to create a competitive, multifunctional cultural and tourism attraction that can become the dominant tourist attraction of the region, promoting its economic recovery, the emergence of entrepreneurial capital, and the implementation of rehabilitation and infrastructure development for visiting tourists, which is closely linked to the project. The financial objective of the development, as well as the expected result, is that the Károlyi Castle can operate profitably without external state aid and can perform minor repairs and maintenance on its own and without any external source. In order to be able to comply with the above, the number of visitors and revenues set must be met. The best way to achieve this is to identify the primary target group and use appropriate marketing communication tools. When tourists choose the Károlyi Castle as a place to spend their free time with the help of various marketing tools, it is important to get more, better services and experiences with the planned and built attractions. Consortium: As a consortium member and partner, Forster Centre involves Budavári Real Estate Development and Operator Nonprofit Kft. The leader of the consortium is Forster Centre. In the implementation of the project, the tasks will be shared by the participants in the consortium as follows: The Forster Centre prepares and arranges plans, related background studies, performs project management during implementation, manages the progress of the project with the help of professional colleagues and participates in the implementation of the project’s professional tasks. Budavári Real Estate developer implements the public procurement, all investment and professional service tasks, using the reserve if necessary. At the same time, it will take over the operation tasks of the castle from the Forster Centre. The Forster Centre accounts for the project costs gross and the Budavári Real Estate developer on a net basis. The aid intensity of the project is 100 % and the aid requested is HUF 1.5 billion, of which HUF 7.5 million falls into the ‘de minimis’ category, i.e. de minimis. Improvements: The roofing and roof structure and facades of the castle building are fully restored; its wall structures are provided with subsequent insulation against soil moisture. In the southern wing of the building there will be a complete reconstruction of the already partially renovated ground floor spaces as well as the dining rooms. The former spaces are renovated as interiors with equipment that can be reconstructed on the basis of archive photos. The upper floors of the south wing will be partially visited and the basement level will be partially renewed. The part of the castle park not covered by the KEOP programme will be included in the present development: complete restoration of the inner courtyard of the castle, partial restoration of the immediate surroundings of the castle and the construction of the parking lot next to the gate. Project preparation costs include carrying out a feasibility study, which is a mandatory element of the application. Additional cost items e.g. preparation of permit and construction plans (castle building, beach house, castle park, parking place) with the involvement of an external designer, as well as the preparation of a restoration plan and an exhibition plan. The activities covered by the Public Procurement Act require the involvement of an official public procurement consultant in the implementation of the project. The area preparation cost includes the costs of preparing the ERD and the necessary earthworks. Within the construction costs, we intend to carry out a number of activities, such as: building renovation, restoration of built-in elements, construction of attraction elements for presentation/interpretation (tourism), restoration of the immediate surroundings of the castle building and part of the park,...
