European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage /
Europa Nostra Awards 2011

Each year, Europa Nostra and the European Union reward the best of cultural heritage achievements. Through our European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage / Europa Nostra Awards, we celebrate excellence and dedication by architects, craftsmen, volunteers, schools, local communities, heritage owners and media. Through the power of their example we stimulate creativity and innovation, and awareness-raising of the benefits Europe’s rich cultural heritage adds to the quality of our lives.

The Awards celebrate exemplary restorations and initiatives of the many facets of Europe’s tangible cultural heritage, in categories ranging from the conservation of monuments and buildings, their adaptation to new uses, and new interventions in historic settings, to urban and rural landscape rehabilitation, archaeological site interpretations, and care for art collections. Also awarded are research and education projects, dedicated service to heritage conservation by individuals and organisations, and education and awareness raising initiatives related to cultural heritage. Every year, up to six Grand Prix monetary awards of €10.000 each are presented to the top Laureates in the various categories. Anyone can make a nomination or enter a project (with the permission of the project’s owner).

Submit your project and share your success!
