The development of mobile technologies over the last few years has enabled their usage in all the domains of everyday life. One of the components that is becoming a common part of advanced mobile devices (e.g. mobile phones and personal digital assistance devices) is the GPS transceiver, the most common usage of which is determining the geographical location and helping navigating a certain area. In this paper we present the concept of a system for locating and presenting information about objects belonging to cultural heritage relying on mobile technologies and GPS. This kind of system can be used for educational purposes, promotion and enrichment of cultural heritage and the local community's tourist offer. Unlike other similar systems, this mobile location service has characteristics of Web 2.0 technologies usage in all its user-interaction components.
