Abstract: Modern Internet portals to cultural heritage of given nation provide aggregation of multimedia content from digital libraries plus some semantic services but miss support of community collaboration in content enrichment and metadata annotation. The paper presents a new portal for internationalized content authoring, enhancing and annotating, and management of various types of descriptions of immovable cultural monuments. The portal provides community collaboration services in order to encourage and facilitate accumulation of distributed public knowledge about immovable cultural heritage. The conceptual design of the portal is based on ontology and metadata templates for each monument type used for content creation and management with community support. There are explained the software architecture of the portal and the practical realization of its first prototype.
