The Landschaftsverband Rheinland (LVR) has the claim to make its Internet pages accessible without barriers. They are to be designed in such a way that they comply with the national legislation implementing Directive (EU) 2016/2102 of the European Parliament. The following declaration on accessibility applies to the website "Mediaguide" with its subchapters.

Status of the compatibility of the website with the requirements for barrier-free information technology

This website is not compatible with the requirements of barrier-free information technology.

Non-accessible contents

We are currently working on improving the accessibility of the websites of the Rhineland Regional Council. For it we ask for some patience, since the regional organization Rhineland - with its schools, hospitals, museums, cultural mechanisms, welfare-educational nets, youth welfare facilities and the national youth welfare department - operates a large number of Web appearances, and the barrier liberty optimizations require also changes in programming. At the time the pages were created, the topic of accessibility had not yet progressed as far as it does today. We try to remove the barriers as quickly as possible.

Feedback and contact

If you want to contact the LVR-LandesMuseum Bonn, please write to info.landesmuseum-bonn@lvr.de. We look forward to your comments, suggestions and questions on the subject of "Accessibility". In particular, you can report any shortcomings to us and obtain information on content exempted from the EU Directive.

Please note that when you send the e-mail, the personal data you have provided and any special data based on Article 6 paragraph 1 EU-DSGVO will be transmitted to the Landschaftsverband Rheinland and used to answer your request. Please also read our data protection information.

Monitoring center for barrier-free information technology of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia

The monitoring center for barrier-free information technology of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia regularly checks whether and to what extent websites and mobile applications of public authorities in the state meet the requirements of accessibility.

The goal of the monitoring center's work is to ensure that the requirements for barrier-free information technology are met and to ensure that the legal regulations are implemented throughout the state.
