Abstract

The accessibility of public facilities and the availability of their content represent a moral imperative and an obligation to society. Unhindered movement and the participation in public and cultural life is a legal obligation under the Constitution and is one of the main postulates of human rights and freedoms. Also, to deny someone education and their creative potential is a violation of various laws. People with disabilities are able to work, earn, produce and engage in all social and economic developments in a country. In economic terms, their potential is huge. The facilitation of access to cultural events and archaeological sites presents a great potential for culture, tourism and economy. The survey on accessibility, conducted with the management of the sites of Mediana, Caričin Grad, Vrelo-Šarkamen, Ravna, Gamzigrad, Viminacijum, Vinča and Sirmium is integrated into this paper.
