Awarding of the European Union’s “European Heritage Label” to Minas de Almadén and its Mining Park. The Almadén Mines and its mining Park are recognised as European Label 2021, thus becoming the only place in Spain that is both World Heritage and European Heritage Label.

After two years of COVID, it seems necessary to us to have a discussion between associations and volunteers about the experiences and approaches of industrial and technical heritage in Europe, to exchange ideas. ![]()

However, for various reasons, a physical meeting does not yet seem feasible. That is why EFAITH, the European Federation of Associations of Industrial and Technical Heritage, is organising a first free virtual meeting via Zoom on Saturday 14 May. Individuals and organisations can then present a project or their experiences from past COVID years. ![]()

Presentations may last 20 minutes and are followed by online questions and discussion. Presentations can use PowerPoint and may be made in English or French. More information is available on our website, see 👇http://industrialheritage.eu/activities/next-industrial-heritage-weekend
