The European Heritage Awards / Europa Nostra Awards are now open for submissions until 1 February 2022.

The European Heritage Awards / Europa Nostra Awards aim to identify, recognise and champion best practices in the conservation of cultural heritage and as well as innovative developments and knowledge in the care and promotion of tangible and intangible cultural heritage. Through the power of example, the scheme enables the exchange and transfer of experiences and skills across borders and between communities in Europe and beyond. It increases the visibility and understanding of the multiple values of cultural heritage for Europe’s society, economy, environment and culture.

Awards will be given in 5 categories:

• Conservation & Adaptive Reuse;
• Research;
• Education, Training & Skills;
• Citizens Engagement & Awareness-raising; and
• Heritage Champions

Up to 30 remarkable heritage achievements from all over Europe will be awarded. Of those, up to 5 winners will receive a Grand Prix with a prize of €10,000. One winner will also receive the Public Choice Award following an online vote.
