It was to include the most important and valuable monuments of the Czech Republic, the national cultural treasures. During the following decades of communist totalitarianism, the list of National Cultural Monuments was expanded in number, and among the immovable architectural and technical monuments and movable treasures, ideological monuments related to the history of the revolutionary and workers‘ movement, the Communist Party and its representatives were declared and given special emphasis in this category until 1989.
