Programme 2000 - 2006 Atlantic Area

Date of latest update: 2021-04-06

Description

Description (EN):

Although the Celtic heritage of the Atlantic Area is often stressed, it is not the only one. Like the European identity, the Atlantic identity is characterised by its diversity and its richness. In this connection, the ALTMEDIEVAL project is intended to promote, in the framework of integrated touristic and cultural strategies, the influence of the Arab, Jewish, Christian and Celtic cultures on the area’s mediaeval heritage and traditions. As members of the network of towns ‘The Order of Atlantic Mediaeval Cities of the Patrimony’, the partners will carry out actions stressing the value of the historico-cultural heritage, of research, of information and of documentation. Touristic and cultural events and training courses in the skills of animation and mediaeval arts and crafts will also be organised.

Achievements (EN):

✔ Creation of an "Order of Atlantic Medieval Heritage Cities" which at first grouped the founding members, but which intends to group other organisations who may be interested ✔ Creation of the website "Medieval Atlantic Area", which supplies a database on a medieval theme (www.medievalatlantic.com) ✔ Various studies and seminars and publication of a practical guide on the techniques of conservation, renovation, valorisation and management of the heritage ✔ Creation of an Interpretation and Information Centre at the Château de Blain, which includes a medieval library, provides access to a database and documentary information and also organises exhibitions and work placements for young people
