Conclusion The study of the historical buildings made the students aware of the value of their cultural heritage in a European context. It sensitized to recognize common values. Due to the topic " castle stories ", the pupils experienced special motivation for creative writing. The art class offered with the theme " castles " much room to have and to shape imaginative and creative ideas. Imagination became the tool of our project. In addition, testing new digital specialty tools consolidated their historical knowledge and inspired them to their own creative imaginative arguments.
